... militarily... when all they had to do to beat us was to buy us. 'Thousands of years ago the Old Empire had enforced the Pax Morporkia, which had said to the world: "Do not fight, or we will kill you." The Pax had arisen again, but this time it said: "If you fight, we'll call in your mortgages. And incidentally, that's my pike you're poinging at me. I paid for that shield you're holding. And take my helmet off when you speak to me, you horrible little debtor."' -- Terry Pratchett, _Feet of Clay_ |

Want a link? Now you are harassing people like me who have been asking you to stop for years! Want a link to that too? Within hours of correcting that poster you interjected your own swear word! Want a link? Your sig is usually longer than your post! Etiquette? Gut check here "pal", you have posted 20+ one liners in less than 24 hours all easily linkable as proof yet you make claims against me without proof and then "send me back to killfile hell" when I DEMAND proof. Talk about a "signal to noise ratio." Noise, thy name is OM. Nice try though Bob. Paul |
