    I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891

    Actually, the last excerpt is the most interesting one: why would anyone steal a Bible?
    I watched you fall. I think I pushed.

        The little yard apes go through food, and conversely, diapers, quick.
        Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.

        He also hates Texans and Australians, he does diversify." ~ Braindead

          When I was in the Navy and on deployment, my sister in law used my care to pick up some bibles for her church. She left them in the car for the night.

          Next day, the car is gone................ but the bibles are sitting on the curb.

          Bastards!

          ACK!
          Don't try to confuse the issue with half-truths and gorilla dust!
