Wolf clarification

I see the glass as half full or half empty depending on whether it's being
filled or emptied.  As for loving and compassionate wolves, they remind me
of that Richard Gere quote from the Idiocy Watch link that David posted:
"...If you can see [the terrorists] as a relative who's dangerously sick and
we have to give them medicine, and the medicine is love and compassion.
There's nothing better."  You loving compassionate wolves must feel terribly
shocked by reality sometimes.  It's little wonder you freak out on a daily
basis.

"Oh, the hegemony of reality, oh!"
