of umerika could think without being told what by sTeVejObS.

all us good, gun-toting left-wing corporapists with lifetime NOW/NRA
cards use vi which I've been told stands for Very Intuitive.

sheesh. Glad I stepped into the that before it got outta hand


why does my foot stink?

Every time you stop a school, you will have to build a jail. What you
gain at one end you lose at the other. It's like feeding a dog on his
own tail. It won't fatten the dog.
