      From: jbeeson@invalid.net.invalid              In eighty-four years, I've seen the federal government throw       many tantrums, but it has never once shut down.              On one memorable occasion, it posted guards around a park       that had no fence or gate, saying there was no budget for       allowing people to walk across it. Unfortunately, I don't       remember enough details that I could look up the when and       where.              --       Joy Beeson       joy beeson at centurylink dot net       http://wlweather.net/PAGEJOY/              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
