Ah yes, Vergel (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vergel_Meneses),
author of that great Romanian epic, the Upanishad,
**you are mistaken, he wrote Warts and Peas, Part Deux, The TD Strikes
Back.
starring Corydoras
Aeneas.
**looks like Ben Foster is going to play at Chessville in the movie 'The
Messenger' taking on Convekta's engine, first I thought it was to be Woody
H.
He served as Al Dente's guide through Invierno
**yes, Invierno is now a successfully franchised Italian noodle joint
in the epic
poem Comedia dell' Arte.
**Anyway... the response above was Verging on topic, a sullen death-wish
topic; mentioning a context often found in old men, they won't give up,

look forward to lying down forever - and resent anyone disturbing their
process. This is the sad story of USCF's decline in recent years, but at
least its a classical epitaph.
The thing of it is, its not the whole story! - and new young vigorous
people
attempt to wrest the matter from being buried with the former proprietors
so
that a Terence could say, 'Salva res est, bene est tantare.' [its as well
to
try to save the matter].
And since regretable customs have now changed for the worst, this is
necessary - heretofore people who were still making plans, nonsense plans
and schemes, could be forcefully retired to monasterys.
Nowadays we see the results of abandoning this practice, as last
dramatically demonstrated by an English King who lost an entire continent
-
so that our current equivalent is The Madness of King Bill, who is losing
same continent! and on whose tomb will surely be wrote, ruefully
quod non opus est, asse carum est
Quod sciam! [lol] Phil Innes
