celine (Adam Weishaupt):


Open the pod bay doors, HAL
I'm sorry, but I can't do that

cheshire (Mary Vogt):


I wanted to learn all the secrets 
from the edge of a knife
From the point of a needle 
from a diamond
From a bullet in flight
I would be free then


		-Suzanne Vega


---------------------------------------------------------------------------
dkk (David K Krikorian):


A rule of thumb is an easy-to-remember guideline that falls somewhere
between a mathematical formula and a shot in the dark.  It's a
homemade recipe for making a guess about how to do something, from
choosing a watermelon to figuring out how long it will take to turn a
ship around, from avoiding lunatics on a bus to finding a safe parking
space.  Some of these rules are quite useful, others are of dubious
practical value, but all of them are entertaining.

[From the back cover of "Rules of Thumb 2" by Tom Parker, Houghton
Mifflin, 1987.]

mar (Mark A. Rosenstein):

Sealed with a curse
Sharp as a knife
Doomed is your soul
And damned is your life.
		-Lord John Whorfin
