Okay, I think I have to put
a little legal disclaimer here, just in case any of you yahoos out there
feel the strange need to sue me. To all of you I have to say this:
Don't bother. The current balance in my checking account is not enough
to fill up my car with a tank of gas, and I don't think that would really
cover your lawyer fees. Sorry about that. Oh, and I think I
need to thank the UT Daily Beacon for posting these little gems of humor
on the internet. Without them, I would have to make most of this
up (and no one wants that, do they?). From the bottom of my heart,
I love you. No, really. I LOVE you. Good day.
