AndyMan 7 #1 March 22, 2002 A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly.

PhreeZone 20 #5 March 22, 2002 Woo hoo... done all but the plan an invasion, write a sonnet, and die gallantly parts!Anyone know of a small county/country that needs invaded? I REFUSE to write a wussy sonnet... a manly sonnet is right before the die gallantly thing...I wish you would step back from that ledge my friend... ~3EB Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kmcguffee 0 #7 March 22, 2002 OK, got some of these down. I think I need work on 'write a sonnet', 'conn a ship', and 'die gallantly', but who the hell wants to write a sonnet. Was Heinlein gay? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
