chaw (Miles Taylor Kafka I):
Who knows? Life being as capricious and unpredictable
as it is, my actions at any given moment may or may not
match anything I choose to write here, thus it would be
pure folly to put forth a plan to you at this juncture.

edzimmer (Eric D. Zimmerman):
To come to terms with the fact that I'm really going to be
a senior (gulp!) very soon. Someone, please wake me up!
"I'm sure you're all aware that this is National Gall Bladder Week.
So, as sort of an educational feature, at this point, I thought I
would acquaint you with some of the results of my recent research into
the career of the late Dr. Samuel Gall, inventor of the gall bladder,
which certainly ranks as one of the more important technological
advances since the invention of the joy buzzer and the dribble glass.
Dr. Gall's faith in his invention was so dramatically vindicated last
year, as you no doubt recall, when, for the first time in history, in
a nationwide poll, the gall bladder was among the top ten organs.
"His educational career began, interestingly enough, in agricultural
school, where he majored in animal husbandry, until they caught him at
it one day, whereupon he switched to the field of medicine. In this
field he also won renown as the inventor of gargling, which prior to
that time had been practiced only furtively by a remote tribe in the
Andes, who passed the secret down from father to son as part of their
oral tradition.
"He soon became a specialist, specializing in diseases of the rich. He
was therefore able to retire at an early age, to the land we all dream
about, sunny Mexico, of course. The last part of this was completely
irrelevant, as was the whole thing, I guess...."

Sooner or later just like the world first day
Sooner or later we learn to throw the past away
