weapons to work and all..
CROW: No, that's the Ferengi Rule of Acquistition #389.

I made about 5 cents.

ALL: ONE DOLLAR FOR AN INDEX CARD?!!
CROW: Geez, what a rip. I can go to those warehouse places and get
thousand for about 10 cents.

CROW: Mike! Mike! What's the problem?
MIKE: I don't know guys. I just had this really weird dream. Something
about index cards and all.
[Tom and Crow look at each other]
T&C: Index cards?

It *was* an evil bit. Here's the apology/explanation on rec.food.cooking.
Oh, and nice MSTing, Mr. Neylon!

I just got email concerning that message that was posted on this
newsgroup. The following is quoted from my sysadmin:
[08/15] Our forger is at work again... he posted to > 25 newsgroups, going
through DREXEL to do so. We cannot cancel the posts, since they
did not originate with our news server. - Avi
Sorry about the post... but I, of course, did not post this message, and
hope this forge didn't get to any more newsgroups :-(
