But if you have *stranglers* on your club rides, I won't be showing up anytime soon. It's not that big a deal, Dane. They usually choke under pressure.... |

Of course it would help if the rest of them throttle themselves a little. -- Dane Jackson - z u v e m b i @ u n i x b i g o t s . o r g "Hello," he lied. -- Don Carpenter, quoting a Hollywood agent |
