These so called counsellors are little more than cohorts in a vicious and cowardly conspiracy to deprive me of the honors that so rightfully belong to me as a reward for my brilliance. They pretend to be building a case for me, yet they undermine my position at every turn. Notice how good naturedly each advisor responds to eachother's suggestions and how gently they remind eachother of alltogether trivial restrictions on their proffessional practice. Bah! At this rate they will all be eligible for eternity thus depriving me of my next victory forever! ______________________________________________________________________ Post your ad for free now! http://personals.yahoo.ca -- Rule Date: 2002-08-22 13:28:07 GMT
