Beautifully summed up. I only wish your comments about me were true. I did once feel like Richard Gere though. Once I went to Garveys which had a gathering of the ugliest people in the world. I would recommend this to anyone who needs a boost to their self esteem. Go to Garveys and I guarantee that you will look and feel like one of the world's beautiful people for at least as long as you are there.

Greeker, I am embarrassed to say that I have forgotten your name. This is normal for me and my encroaching senility. Please pm me with your name as I am organizing a little gathering that I want to invite you to.

Victory attained by violence is tantamount to a defeat, for it is momentary. Mahatma Gandhi
