amgreene (Andrew Marc Greene):
I went home to depressurize this past weekend. My parents
were very supportive. ``Remember,'' said my mom, ``we'll always be
behind you.'' She and my dad exchanged glances, then they both added,
``Pushing.''
(It's true....)

celine (Robert Fullmer):
The consult instance is intended primarily for conversations between
consultants. When system users ask questions on the consult instance
that should be asked using olc, it slows down the consulting process
and makes it more difficult for us to help people.
Please do not use the consult instance for questions that could be
asked in olc. If you want to ask a question over zephyr, you might
want to consider using the "help" instance.

jab (Jason A Beardsley):
"Signs?" said Frito.
"Verily and forsooth," replied Goodgulf darkly. "In the past year
strange and fearful wonders I have seen. Fields sown with barley reap
crabgrass and fungus, and even small gardens reject their artichoke
hearts. There has been a hot day in December and a blue moon.
Calendars are made with a month of Sundays and a blue-ribbon Holstein
bore alive two insurance salesmen. The earth splits and the entrails of
a goat were found tied in square knots. The face of the sun blackens
and the skies have rained down soggy potato chips."
"But what do all these things mean?" gasped Frito.
"Beats me," said Goodgulf with a shrug, "but I thought it made good
copy. But there is more. My spies tell me of black musters gathering
in the East, in the dead Lands of Fordor. Hoards of foul narcs and
trolls have multiplied and every day red-eyed wraiths skulk even unto
the borders of the Sty. Soon there will be much terror in the land from
the black hand of Sorhed."

needle (Zanzibar B. McFate):
Mae hen wlad fy nhadau
Yn annwyl i mi,
Gwlad beirdd a chantorion,
Enwogion o fri,
Ein gwrol ryfelwyr,
Gwladgarwyr tra mad,
Tros ryddid collasant eu gwaed.
Gwlad! Gwlad!
Pleidiol wyf i'm gwlad.
Tra mor yn fur i'r bur hoff bau,
O bydded i'r hen iaith barhau!
