>How about Seymour? PS, I think your shift key is broken. for some reason, i believe that seymour did rage. he may have shot himself, but i don't think he went quietly, so to speak. if he had meant to go quietly, he wouldn't have shot himself in the same room with muriel sleeping on the bed. perhaps it was an act of desperation. my shift key is not broken....we have 15 minute e-mail limits here, and i type so quickly that i don't like to bother with capitol letters. ever read e.e.cummings? > was Aristotle forced to drink poison also? I thought it was just Socrates. oops, you're right. my mistake. i'm working on 8 hours of sleep in the past 48 hours, my mind is barely functioning at this point. think i'll go home and take a nap. well, i hope you understood my point, even if i've got the wrong names and all. jessica :)
