Dan T., THAT IS GREAT HOW YOU KNOW HOW TO READ AND WRITE, BUT WHY MUST YOU MAKE SUCH LAME ATTEMPTS AT CONTRARINESS? YOU CAN HAVE A WELL THOUGHT OUT POINT OF VIEW, EVEN IF YOU DON'T AGREE WITH PEOPLE. IN THE FUTURE, TRY NOT TO BE SUCH A LAME-O JERKWAD DUMBASS. Dan IS A PRETTY NAME.
It is called sandwiching. No beers before 5:00 CDT, however.

That was really worrisome; but it's copacetic now.

Truth is stranger than fiction.
