All bow before [She Who Kicks Righteous Ass!](http://www.atributetohinduism.com/images/kali_war.jpg) No no. You’ve got **Lynn** pegged all wrong. I’ve always had a mental picture of Lynn, and it’s not to be trifled with. She’s wearing one of those yellow, full length slicker raincoats like the fishermen wear, complete with matching hat and big rubber boots. Kinda’ like the outfit Tom Bombadill wears, ya’ know? She carries a staff and wades through the mire that is The Pit, administering her curious brand of justice as suits her whims. ---

Yeh? And what’s she got on under that yellow slicker, huh? Answer me _that_. :dubious: ---

Shouldn’t have been closed. Though I like the idea of liberal freaks remaining anonymous for once. ---
