Who? Who? The pig? I don't remember this discussion. I'm
gone fishing, see you all in a couple of months. Don't send
me any mail or ccs PLEASE.

PS A one armed fisherman is a busy fisherman, but my owl
keeps the asses at bay and I don't think about that ahabian
arm nailed to the post, no robber am I, Isis oh Isis, this
allegories of love and the soul toss on the waves, fishing
in florida. 

Happy Holidays
