- Hey. I really don't care if women answer me or not, because since I did not

- Once again, may I point out the fact that I was not posting an ad. It's a
- piece of humor called a parody, much like the shows 'In Living Color' and 'The
- Ben Stiller Show,' where they like to poke fun at the ways of people.

- You have heard of them, haven't you?

- I can't see how my original post reminded you of such an incident, but if
- you say so...

-
- Hell, you just might have a point there. It's because I had too much of a life
- in the recent past, that it made me give it up. (Ya know, things like a future,
- good grades, etc etc just keep getting in the way! <smirk>)

- Well, a black cat crosed my path, I stepped on a crack, walked under a ladder,
- and broke a mirror all on Friday, and i'm not dead yet, so Methinks me is doin'
- fine.
