In RSG, ***EVERYTHING*** is that important.

I'm beginning to develop a slight affection for the group
neurosis that infects this place.

The jury is still out on that, but based on what Joe Lieberman
did this week, I think you very well may be right -- except for
one thing. He's not evil, he's just failing.

Typical winter nonsense. We all need fresh air. Nonetheless, Bobby is spot
on. I meant my oath at the time, as did he, and Pitts. Life can be fluid.

Back to Tiger, courtesy of my mother....

Teacher: "Whoever answers the questions I ask, first and correctly can
leave early today."

Little Johnny says to himself "Good, I want to get out of here. I'm smart
and will answer the question."

Teacher: "Who said 'Four Score and Seven Years Ago'?"

Before Johnny can open his mouth, Susie says, "Abraham Lincoln."

Teacher: "That's right Susie, you can go home."

Johnny is mad that Susie answered the question first.

Teacher: "Who said 'I Have a Dream'?"

Before Johnny can open his mouth, Mary says, "Martin Luther King."

Teacher: "That's right Mary, you can go."

Johnny is even madder than before.

Teacher: "Who said 'Ask not, what your country can do for you'?"

Before Johnny can open his mouth, Nancy says, "John F. Kennedy."

Teacher: "That's right Nancy, you may also leave."

Johnny is boiling mad that he has not been able to answer to any of the
questions.

When the teacher turns her back Johnny says, "I wish these bitches would
keep their mouths shut!"

The teacher turns around: "NOW WHO SAID THAT?"

Johnny: "TIGER WOODS. CAN I GO NOW?"

If you use Firefox as your web browser, you can use an add-on called
Greasemonkey that allows you to filter both individual posters and
complete threads in Google Groups.
