Actually I recall the proper quote being ā€œLove of Money is the root of all evilā€. Therefore Assumption #3 is modified. **Love** of women is evil. Theyā€™re fine if you ignore them. ---

[celestina scratching her head, she punches some numbers into her calculator, and all of a sudden the calculator blows up! Her hair standing on end and face smudged with soot, she sits there in shock for a few seconds, but then she starts to cough at the all the smoke. Frantically waving away the smoke, she looks at the ruins of her desk.] Dangit! Yaā€™ll know I ainā€™t good at math. Ainā€™t women difficult enough to understand without bringing all these high-falutinā€™, new, befandangled equations up in here! Now on top of everything else Iā€™ve got to contend withā€“I donā€™t know how Iā€™m going to explain this mess to my bossā€“my gender is reduced to an equation. Iā€™m a commodity! Oh, my sisters in sin, weā€™re nothing but figures on a spreadsheet, graphs on an x,y axis, derivations upon derivations of two-dimensionality! Oh, the shame of it all! Is there no justice in the world? [celestina, muttering all sorts of naughty words under her breath, starts cleaning off her desk, salvaging what she can.] Oh, and Uncle Bill, I concur with Creaky and jarbabyj. Thereā€™s nothing quite as sexy as a big, strong fella who ignores a woman, unless he starts to pay attention! Oh, I love a challenge! šŸ˜‰ ---

\ **jarbaby** , I wish we belonged to the same gym - Iā€™d be honored to be getting all sweaty in your presence. _ahem_ Unfortunately, Iā€™m a burbs dweller (and IIRC, youā€™re in the city), so the likelihood of us being on treadmills next to each other is remote at best. ā˜¹ (BTW, forgot to modify my profile - there ya go!) \ **Krunk** ---
