- It seems to me that for foolish rantings you're getting pretty close to
- the lead, here. Especially in this forum, wild assertions about what
- "everybody knows" are worthless. In my (rarely humble) opinion, the
- Three Stooges are the closest to embodiments of truth.
-
- I'm beginning to regret that I ever started this damnable religion.
- It's just that bunnies are so cute, you know...
-
- Now, I've read your signature, so I'm supposed to experience extreme good
- fortune. However, by posting this message I suspect I'm letting myself in
- for fortune of quite another kind. Which one will win out? Or will they
- just average out to my usual everyday kind of fortune?
