Nutty in natter, and who needs context? Not us:
2. People who believe that major corporations would actually put "devil worship" in a line-item budget need to be beaten with an old-time mechanical calculator. You put that expense under "Travel and Entertainment."

Oh totally -- practically everything in the world is too complex for the layperson to understand. Electricity? MAGIC! Television? TINY PEOPLE IN A BOX!
amych -

Shrift: More of a First Against the Wall When the Revolution Comes.
DXMachina: You're gonna need a bigger wall.
shrift: Think China will let me borrow theirs?
DXMachina: Will it be big enough?
Dana: I smell a road trip!
DXMachina: You'll need a theme song:

To wipe out some folks we don't like.
Since we're goin', while we're goin', we can have a bash,

She aspires to be Tim, I think.
DebetEsse: Tim kills people off for effect. This was just expediency.
Cindy: I have run across fewer craxy agnostics
Jessica: I now have a burning desire to stand on the streetcorner screaming "ACCEPT AMBIGUITY INTO YOUR POSSIBLY EXISTENT SOUL!!!!"

I often wonder why Biblical literalists aren't surprised that the book is so confusing and contradictory. I mean, would a supreme being really have such a limited grasp of rhetoric? If the Bible was written by God, then we can all be grateful that God never took a job writing technical manuals or instructions for programing VCRs.
