Chris, I have several questions for you: 1) Do you live on the Boffo Beach? 2) Are you aquainted with someone named John Watson (aka Wonko the Sane)? 3) Do you live near anyone who refers to their house as "Outside the Asylum?" 4) Do you know any people with metalic beards who wear Dr. Scholl sandals and run a scooter concession? 5) Does the bowl in question (i.e. the one in your livingroom) bear a message of appreciation for gifts of seafood? 6) Are you a TURTLE? (Oops, wrong questionaire. Please write the answer to this question on a piece of legal size paper and make three <3> xerox copies. Place one copy between pages 152,856 and 152,857 of the Los Angeles dial-a-sex phone number directory and bury it in soft peat for three months; then recycle it as firelighters. Burn the second copy in an Aztec cerimonial gold urn. Send the remaining copy to the IRS.) 7) Does the equation 6 x 9 = 42 mean anything to you? Please post the answers to these questions (excepting, of course, number 6) to the net. Maybe with this information, those of us out here in netland can postulate some possible answers to your ponderously vexing questions. Barth Richards Tellabs, Inc.
