Re: An Inconvenient Truth


Wha, ok.  Fox News might be the oxymoron of the century.  I think
all that can safely be said is that the Earth is one of likely
billions of planets in a vast vast universe that does not revolve 
around us.

I like the Earth.  I don't want to take it for granted.  It's where
I keep all my stuff.

Last night, I walked up to this beautiful woman in a bar and asked her, 
"Do you live around here often?"  She said, "You're wearing two 
different colored socks."  I said, "Yes, but to me they're the same 
because I go by thickness."  Then she asked, "How do you feel?"  and I 
said, "Well, you know when you're sitting on a chair and you lean back 
so you're just on two legs then you lean too far and you almost fall 
over but at the last second you catch yourself?  I feel like that all 
the time."
