Cheers!

~ Retribution would be slow and painful for those inconsiderate fucks, and then they would have to do a year of community service. And then be on parole forever.

dmac:
Yes, we missed each other in San Diego by mere inches, I'm afraid. But I wouldn't have been much fun anyway with that damn board cert exam dangling over my noggin. Perhaps another time...
