Reminds me of when I was in college and got a job tending bar. There were these 6 middle age guys that used to come in every day around 5:30pm. They would sit it the same places at the bar, order the same beers, and tell the same lies to each other over and over again. They each had their own rant they would go into if they got enough beer into them. We used to call them "The Loosers Club". Every bar I've ever been in has had it's own special version of the club. This guy is about 15 to 20 year out from joining. That and 75 pounds and a dead end job. The bullshit you hear today is the bullshit your heard yesterday and will hear tomorrw. Ignore him. Don't waste your time. He's not going away. We are stuck with him My $0.02 Josef -- Josef Grosch | Another day closer to a | FreeBSD 5.1 jgrosch@MooseRiver.com | Micro$oft free world | www.bafug.org
