How horrible about the trees! I agree, what you were thinking would have been funny, but I don't know if I would make jokes at the expense of men with chain saws.

I don't want to get into the parenthesis thing until I track down something I read a long time ago, to the effect that conventions about punctuation were invented by printers. I am not sure I want a bunch of printers telling me how to place punctuation marks.

>>>And maybe some day I'll get all of Alex's jokes<<<

I've tried, TLC. It would be far easier to be a merit scholar. A wise one.

Between the two of us, there are people on this thread RIGHT HERE who are as intelligent and wise as any people I have ever met. And if you wanna do the math, I bet that as a group we'd match any group of smart folk in the world.

Tree cutting . . . John Denver had an eye-for-an-eye
response upon learning that his ex-wife had removed
a couple of his favorite trees to have a better view
of the mountains. He simply took a chain-saw to her
custom-built furniture.

He said it wasn't one of his more proud moments.
