      Edit: But I hope we can still be friends, ok?

        Yeah, that's okay, apart from June 22 of course. It's not like you're the first woman who turned into a man, and I guess it's one of those things you just have to get used to living in a region of sexual emancipation.

          It opened my eyes to the truths of international relations.
          I just read it and I had the opposite expirience. It often bored me to sleep, I had to extend it once and still kept it long enough to pay a fine at the library.

            Surely, that's the correct answer to the question posed in the title of this thread.

                Ingrid, ignore the little-brained pleb. He deserves to be intimidated by your normality.

                BTW, what are you doing friday? Wanna check out a few spots?

                    I enjoyed it myself. Of course part of the fun was imagining Kissinger's voice as I read, which made his dry humor a lot more effective.

                        Damn!

                        No-one here appreciates my high-brow literary gags!

                        I'll just have to take them elsewhere.....

                        .... like Civ 3 - Apolyton University!!
