I know a hooker who works the old Navy yards that would make you
change your tune.

That's just because another door had been _slammed_ in your face!

I dreamed of moving furniture as a kid. That's all I wanted to do. I
wanted to move bureaus, and credenzas, secretaries, capstan tables,
Morris chairs, chaise lounges, loveseats - I wanted to move them
_all_!

Now what's left? I have nothing to look forward to. I think I'm
going to go pull an overloaded bookcase over on top of me. Let's see
what those _unlicensed_ rescue people do without the ability to
legally move the bookcase! I'll teach those bastards...

Not particularly. I also don't like people expecting me to agree with
_any_ of their political, sexual or religious views. I'm funny that
way. I also have favorite foods, comic books, and pairs of shoes - I
don't expect them to be _your_ favorites.

Maybe I should have put a smiley face in there somewhere...

Anyone old enough to remember the Tulip Crash of 1637?

( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tulip_mania )

Humans do stupid things, individually and in groups.

We've currently got an "Interior Designer's Act" in committee, and the
original draft of it included such a broad definition of "interior design"
that no one could 'advise' anyone for a fee on the purchasing of furniture
or on the selection of paint color. Someone eventually shouted WTF, and they
pulled it back a bit.

Sorry, I should have said "for a fee or not".
