- Young man! I remind you that this is a decent, upstanding
- newsgroup and that your remarks are spread, er,
- disseminated, er, broadcast all over Wisconsin, where our
- motto is "Eat cheese or die." We do *not* allow even the
- word for that ... "product!"
-
- I will, however, immediately snarf your line into my book of
- insults, for shameless re-use.

- That's something of a low-libido combination, as icons go, I
- think.

- >with Patrick Stewart. How do you do it?
-
- You open your eyes *very* wide, flutter the lids a few
- times, say "oh" softly, drop your diet Coke, and crumple
- obtrusively to the carpet, taking care not to bump your head
- on the corner of the coffee table on the way down.
-
- This is not to be done willy-nilly, however -- too easy to
- get stepped on, rather than noticed.
