$ fortune | cowsay _________________________________________ / My band career ended late in my senior \ | year when John Cooper and I threw my | | amplifier out the dormitory window. We | | did not act in haste. First we checked | | to make sure the amplifier would fit | | through the frame, using the belt from | | my bathrobe to measure, then we picked | | up the amplifier and backed up to my | | bedroom door. Then we rushed forward, | | shouting "The WHO! The WHO!" and we | | launched my amplifier perfectly, as | | though we had been doing it all our | | lives, clean through the window and | | down onto the sidewalk, where a small | | but appreciative crowd had gathered. I | | would like to be able to say that this | | was a symbolic act, an effort on my | | part to break cleanly away from one | | state in my life and move on to | | another, but the truth is, Cooper and I | | really just wanted to find out what it | | would sound like. It sounded OK. | | | \ -- Dave Barry, "The Snake" / ----------------------------------------- \ ^__^ \ (oo)\_______ (__)\ )\/\ ||----w | || ||
