Charlie,
 
Get yourself under control.  Is there a scintilla of evidence that I
don't "realise" all the stuff you retail out here?

I wouldn't call that a line.  My line, your guess, their fifth beer.

An uncertain population.  "Species" has no meaning, or means what you
waht it to mean.

Depends on the density.  One ungulate to four acres, no problem.  Feed
lots in Omaha, and New Orleans is uninhabitable -- until they get the
law changed.

Charlie, I've gotta say, you have trespassed on one of my pet
bigotries: anybody who ever says "no pun intended" is an asshole.  I'm
sorry, the only ay you can redeem yourself is by reading, maybe, Trout
Fishing in America, either the book or the poems.  Maybe Sylvia Path's
suicide book.  Whatever.  Getchaself some soul, dammit...  :-)

>Have a nice day.
 
Always do.  It's the night before the note is due at the bank that is
hard.
