Random debris....

"Animals can be trained not to be stupid. And my cats only lick themselves to get clean."---R. K. Millholland "Something Positive"

That seems to accurately describe at least 98% of the people I deal with on a day to day basis. Unfortunately for me, and fortunately for a lot of people...I am not God. Otherwise, that issue would be addressed.
