   Maybe they were all U-of-Michigan fans and they are all off licking
their wounds.  I live in Ypsilanti now but spent 19 years in Ann Arbor and
have *NEVER* been a fan of U-mama.  Can't abide by supporting the local 
team just because I live here.

   If it were MicroShaft they'd call it "bloatware".  What are we supposed
to call it when it's happening to our beloved Linux?  It's really too bad 
that Linux has 'bloated' so badly.  Was really nice to use old junker 
machines ya pick up next to the dumpster and get several more years of use 
out of them.  Truely sad...

   No *neighbors* will put up with it either, should that bathrobe
accidentally flip open in the breeze.  GAG!!!  Now THERE went the property
values, not to mention some unsuspecting little 12-year-old girls
eyesight.  Have you no shame, Ric.  Have you no shame...
