Don't let go" Greg: "I'm cold and wet, get off that damn door." --- Stores like Sears, trying to be everything for everyone, seem like such an anachronism- they always seem to be aiming for a stature or grandeur that they just can't reach in urban areas. 98-12-15 --- slave girls from beyond/embrace of the vampire --- "Love?

Drench it in gasoline and flick a match at it! Q. How do you make a dog go 'meaow'? A. Deep freeze it, and run it through a power saw! --- Dr. Kennedy claims all science springs from Christianity, and no other culture...right.... How about the Greeks? He's wrong in *so* many ways, yet I know there are people who don't know enough to challenge what he says. 98-12-26 --- "God bless... God damn." --last words of James Thurber 1961 |
