Ping is short for PENGUIN.

Don't piss off the penguin.

Holy reach-back-into-my-memory-banks, Batman ... er, I mean Catspaw.

I did a book report on that three years running 2,3 and 4th grades I think. No one ever figured out I was using the same infantile book over and over.

Today, I'm an idiot having cleverly shielded by brain from having grasped any new knowledge.

Children ... don't do this at home, or school or anywhere ... a mind is a terrible thing to waste.

LOL, yeah, mathematics is something I´m more and more willing to forget - and if only to avoid a heart disease when I look at the checks every month ;-)

I hooked up the IV, I'll be fine, now.

I'm learning the perils of Freeping without coffee.
