Danny Kaye. He was hilarious.

Ya know what? You never really said anything more about becoming a molecular biologist. I was just thinking about it. My mother's father was in the military. My father's father was also in the military. God only know where they might have been stationed during their life. So, my father grows up in China, (actually in Africa, so it's not far off) and learns martial arts from a bunch of Buddhist monks living nearby. My mother's father was stationed in Korea (actually in Ohio) and my mother also learned martial arts. So, now I grow up learning 2 different martial arts styles. That would be radically, almost inconceivably different from my life, and that's only something I can think plausible to have happened. That would also be waaaay out of character for my mother, if you knew her. I have no doubt there's a you out there who is into biological medicine.

You know what? You never did get it through your head that you weren't going to persuade me of this no matter what you said, and all you were going to accomplish was making me more angry about the amount of time I'm wasting reading you saying the same things over and over and over and over and over again.

No one has posted as many posts to this board in the last twenty-four hours as you have, and most of those posts are a waste of my time keeping me from getting to the game threads and from there to finding time to do the writing that actually starts to pay the bills.

And no, I'm not in a depressive funk. I get in a depressive funk when I don't let myself get angry at people who make my life more difficult.

And not all that long ado, I would have said the same thing about something else. People change my friend. Case in point, you used to compliment me on my ability to make you think. That's all.
