I put forth to them the statistic I had learned that 50% of firefighters were pyromaniacs as youngsters. One of them said he wasn't and the other one said he was.

I was ready to confess my deepest admiration and love for the works of the magnificent Monty Python... Well, who did I want to fool? Who cares about what I think and what I appreciate? How could I just come up with anything new and genius? Everything has been already said and written. I guess you may even be a little bored and tired of standing on a pedestal all the time. Maybe it is time for someone to come and paint footsteps... THANK YOU FOR MAKING ME LAUGH!!!! PS: Yes. I can speak English. I learned it from a book. Dear Mr. Cheese,

Simply put, arson, murder, and the other eight commandments got us out of the Grimpen mire and the caves and into the Maybachs dry of fuel rotting by the side of San Ysidro road. And, BTW, don't overcook the cat--it tastes better al dente.
