biciunas (Paul Biciunas):
When I die, I wanna go like my granddad - peacefully, in his sleep.
Not screaming, like his passengers.

cfields (Craig Fields):
Q: Is there such a thing as an unforgivable sin? If so, what is it and
how do I commit it?
A: The worst sin, the act that all races and religions agree is
against the laws of nature, is to attempt to divide by zero. Even
computers will stop, horrified, in their tracks and chastise any
operator crass enough to attempt such a thing. Division by zero may
leave an indelible stain on the soul, which can be erased only by a
full confession to a qualified mathematician. Even then, this sin must
be atoned for in a purgatory filled with unbalanced checkbooks and
tedious exercises in long division. But that's the way it has to be;
otherwise, the entire system of checks and balances would fly out the
window.
