Those raisin-brained boobs were just too stupid to upgrade.  If
they're too incompetent to walk down to the corner store, it's their
problem.  Is C= supposed to start selling bibs just because their
users drool?  No, of course not.  Their job is to make computers, not
to satisfy 1% of the Amiga population by selling bibs with A1000 logos
on them.  :)

You know, I'm kind of surprised.  Dave hasn't come in and slapped us
around yet.  :)  It must be that spinelessness getting to him, he
can't even defend himself anymore.  Listen...  off in the distance...
You can hear him crying "Help!  I've fallen, and I can't get up!"...
I'll bet he's been bribed by marketing into becoming a willing puppet.
:D  After all, nobody in their right mind would listen to Metallica,
so Dave must be losing it.  It explains all of those brain-dead
designs coming out of C=, you know, the ones with absolutely no
creative or innovative designs.  Yup, Dave's brain is fudge.  :)

(One of these days, he's going to find some way to revoke BOTH of our
net accesses.  :)

>I just hate it when that happens. What about Adobe, the cute little car that's

They run great, unless you live in a warm, damp climate.  Then it
tends to run.  And never get into an accident with one.  At least with
a VW Rabbit you've got a CHANCE of surviving.  However meager the
percent.  If you ever heard the term "He wrapped his car around a
tree", they're probably referring to the Adobe.  He probably, quite
literally, wrapped his car around the tree.  Instant horseshoe.  And
when he hit that tree, you know that the last thing on his mind became
quite plainly visible.  His brains spattered all over the tree.
Suffice to say that the tree was undamaged, and all of that blood will
probably make it grow a few feet next spring.

>Now, now! The men of Cheers are kind, caring, loving people with jobs, homes,

If Norm were any fatter, he'd be taking up three bar-stools, and
drinking a beer with each of his chins.  If he was any less
intelligent, he'd forget he had to pay for them.  Not that he doesn't
already, he's not exactly a mathematical genius.  And not that I'm
calling him a bad accountant, but he couldn't tell a decimal from a
Daniels.  :D

>(Ohhh... you were talking about the WOMEN. Well, that's OK then...)

Let's not get into anti-social lushes who accompany half the men
there.  :)

>Gotta watch that Captain Jack... after all, GB is a big Billy Joel fan...

EWW.  Ick.  Yuck.  How dare you make such an insinuation.  I wouldn't
go to a Billy Joel concert if I was tied down, chained, and gagged.
Of course, I'd probably be in bed if I was that bad off...  :D

>Wahhhhhw. That's sooooo cooool! But can you have more than 16 colors on any

Of couse you can.  I've got over 24.6 million velcro dots piled up in
the corner.  Display refresh is quite solid, but refresh is kind of slow...

Eww.  I noticed that last insinuation.  I have no intention of
"drilling" myself, I'm the DRILLER, not the DRILLEE.  :)

>(Hey! Don't make fun! My mother's name is Martha... she's from upstate NY, tho
>and hardly has any silly accent at all...)

I'm sorry.  Buy her a shotgun for her birthday for me, would ya?  :)
If she lives in upstate NY, she'll be needing one RSN...
