[QUOTE=Maeglin]  
Funny you should mention that: I didn’t entirely make it up. If you ever cracked open a book in high school, you would recognize it as a variation on a quote from A Separate Peace by John Knowles, 1959. I am just shocked that it went over your head.

Incidentally, I have no intention to quit my day job. I do cutting edge work in financial services for which I am extremely well compensated. You, on the other hand, are forced to watch Oprah during your pathetic lunch break. If I were in your shoes, the millstone of professional mediocrity would have already crushed me.

While you’re at it, is your car better than mine? Do you get more and better quality tail as well? How many cool friends do you have?

Yeah, responding twice in a row is a _great_ way to show that you aren’t intimidated by **Maeglin** ’s post. :rolleyes:

Or it shows my connection is slow today. You choose. But if I were **Maeglin** , I could afford a better conenction!

Mental note: when posting here if you post back to back aimed at same person, this means you are scared of them.

Sssh! You people – Let this die! Leave good enough alone.

Congratulations, Wee Bairn, you have actually admitteed a mistake and changed your position within the same thread. That is something all too rare here.

Let us not concern ouselves with the nature of the route to get from Point A to Point B. The most important thing is you did indeed get to Point B.

I believe this is what is meant by “there is no there there”

Ya know, Wee, it might be good to check in with yourself about what’s really going on with you here, cuz I’m pretty sure whatever it is, it has nothing to do with Oprah.
