....like Tiger?<g> youtube.com "Illusions commend themselves to us because they save us pain and allow us to enjoy pleasure instead. We must therefore accept it without complaint when they sometimes collide with a bit of reality against which they are dashed to pieces." ~Sigmund Freud LOL........ "If you can't do it, give up!" ~Sigmund Freud .......I thought it was "Just do it"<g>

LOL....You mean incurable? AIG.....Ben has a new[sic] motto he lives by, " Send me a sane bank and I will cure it"<g> Phenomenon of illusion....... youtube.com "I only said 'if'!" poor Alice pleaded in a piteous tone. The two Queens looked at each other, and the Red Queen remarked, with a little shudder, "She says she only said 'if' -- -" "But she said a great deal more than that!" the White Queen moaned, wringing her hands. "Oh, ever so much more than that!" "So you did, you know," the Red Queen said to Alice. "Always speak the truth -- think before you speak -- and write it down afterwards." "I'm sure I didn't mean -- -" Alice was beginning, but the Red Queen interrupted. "That's just what I complain of! You should have meant! What do you suppose is the use of a child without any meaning? Even a joke should have some meaning -- and a chiId's more important than a joke, I hope. You couldn't deny that, even if you tried with both hands." "I don't deny things with my hands," Alice objected. "Nobody said you did," said the Red Queen, "I said you couldn't if you tried." "She's in that state of mind," said the White Queen, "that she wants to deny something -- only she doesn't know what to deny!" "A nasty, vicious temper," the Red Queen remarked; and then there was an uncomfortable silence for a minute or two. The Red Queen broke the silence by saying to the White Queen, "I invite you to Alice's dinner-party this afternoon." The White Queen smiled feebly, and said, "And I invite you." "I didn't know I was to have a party at all," said Alice; "but if there is to be one, I think I ought to invite the guests." "We gave you the opportunity of doing it," the Red Queen remarked: "but I daresay you've not had many lessons in manners yet?" "Manners are not taught in lessons," said Alice. "Lessons teach you to do sums, and things of that sort." "Can you do Addition?" the White Queen asked. "What's one and one and one and one and one and one and one and one and one and one?" "I don't know," said Alice. "I lost count." "She can't do Addition," the Red Queen interrupted. "Can you do Subtraction? Take nine from eight." "Nine from eight I can't, you know," Alice replied very readily: "but -- -" "She can't do Subtraction," said the White Queen. "Can you do Division? Divide a loaf by a knife -- what's the answer to that?" "I suppose -- -" Alice was beginning, but the Red Queen answered for her. "Bread-and-butter, of course. Try another Subtraction sum. Take a bone from a dog. What remains?" Alice considered. "The bone wouldn't remain, of course, if I took it -- and the dog wouldn't remain; it would come to bite me -- and I'm sure I shouldn't remain!" "Then you think nothing would remain?" said the Red Queen. "I think that's the answer." "Wrong, as usual," said the Red Queen; "the dog's temper would remain." en.wikipedia.org
