Gee, in our part of California, making the server would be pretty trivial:

#!/bin/sh

set `date`

case $2 in

		echo "The weather is ok today, but it will probably rain."
		echo "Go home early so you don't get caught in an afternoon"
		echo "shower."

I told the priest - don't count on any second coming.
God got his ass kicked the first time he came down here slumming.
He had the balls to come, the gall to die and then forgive us -
No, I don't wonder what he thought it would get us.	-- Prieboy
