Quote of the day...er...week...umm...hey, look, a quote!!
Tibi gratias agimus quod nihil fumas.
It says "...freedom of...", not "...freedom from...".
"It's amazing to me how many people think that voting to have the government give poor people money is compassion. Helping poor and suffering people is compassion. Voting for our government to use guns to give money to help poor and suffering people is immoral self-righteous bullying laziness. People need to be fed, medicated, educated, clothed, and sheltered, and if we're compassionate we'll help them, but you get no moral credit for forcing other people to do what you think is right. There is great joy in helping people, but no joy in doing it at gunpoint." - Penn Jillette

I don't know what to say, except if I have to type it once, I'm gonna type it twice.
Pretty.
Bob, I don't blame you - sometimes those verifications are funny.
KC, Thanks!
Looks exotic. Nice photo.
Thanks for delurking. I love it when people delurk. The necklace was so very sterotypically girlie that I can't believe that he actually got it for me. Showed how much he cared, I guess.
A fish tail, an over riped mango, hmmmmm...I'm getting hungry.
