Mail Goggles! What a good idea: After you lost your cellphone somewhere in LES earlier in the evening and now it's three am, it seems like a good time to email your boss and tell him that you "wdnt be cumming into work tomtoday…ish sick."

Now the guys over at Google are going to step in and save your job and also tons of future embarrassments by making you solve math questions to determine your sobriety before sending any late night emails:

Gmail can't always prevent you from sending messages you might later regret, but today we're launching a new Labs feature I wrote called Mail Goggles which may help.

When you enable Mail Goggles, it will check that you're really sure you want to send that late night Friday email. And what better way to check than by making you solve a few simple math problems after you click send to verify you're in the right state of mind?

First off: the name definitely should have been "Google Goggles" since that is just really fun to say. Secondly: What if you just really suck at math? Or if you are too drunk to send emails, but sober enough to remember to go into preferences and turn off the application?

Sorry Gmail, this is more polite party chit-chat fodder than an actual workable tool. Call us when you enable a Scrabulous function.
