I wonder.  Is the sound still dramatic when it is made while drinking
a large drink from 7-11 or is it then just really gross?

The only other possibility would be that the walls are holographic
projections and the roof is held up by invisible wires that are
suspended by silent helicopters high enough up in the sky so as to be
unseen.  It's unlikely, however.

Sounds like he interrupted the guy while he was playing with his
secretary's box.  (I still think that sounds dirty.)

Oh!  It was children who were giggling!  I feel disappointed somehow.

Well, techically, a balloon filled with hydrogen is perfectly safe as
long as you don't light a match, so keep that match away I tell you,
don't put that match next to-- oh for the love of God!  NO!  The
humanity!  NO!

>  "Why does the pain hurt so much?!"

Well, if pain didn't hurt then what would it be?  Would it still be
pain?  What is pain without hurt?  Wouldn't it simply be an intense
unpainful experience?  It actually sounds pretty good.

People are so damn inconsiderate when they are near death, aren't
they?  "Help me!  Help me!"  And always bleeding everywhere.  And are
they going to clean it up?  Nooo.  Because they are near death.
Excuses!

Yes, he didn't take a year to think about it, or even a few months or
a few days, let alone spend a whole evening thinking about it. :)

Your welcome.

Martin... doesn't play with his secretary's box (ew) or any of his
student's boxes.  He's a good husband and, besides, wouldn't like to
get fired.
