>>For those who don't know, Tamar has called or emailed me every Tuesday since last January. No matter what has been going on in her life, no matter how rude and obnoxious I have been. That says a lot about the kind of person she is.

Charles Hankey

-- T. S. Eliot
Democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for lunch.
Liberty is a well-armed sheep contesting the vote.
- Ben Franklin
Pardon him, Theodotus. He is a barbarian, and thinks that the customs of his tribe and island are the laws of nature.
