But it looks like I definitely can't hide.Since the Beginning, John's spirit is floating over the blogosphere.
He sees everything:
-----Original Message-----Why yes. Isn't it precisely what we, filthy Capitalist bloodsuckers are supposed to do relentlessly? Wake up every morning and try to take over the world on a daily basis, oppress the poor poor, and dishonor their wives and daughters (My favorite part.

Some of them are edible. That said; drinking anything else but Chablis with that would rank you way below the French bureaucrat, mind me.)
Stephen's post today is another evidence that my confidence has been well invested: one can only dream about being attacked by the Guardian.
Truly an achievement.
