Drawing his magnificent sword, Prince Thickaruss proclaimed,
“Stand aside, you words; my instant quarrel is not with you;
it is the blood of the numerals, today I seek.”

All the cliches you ever heard are true - but two,
(And they don’t want to say anymore than that.)

Another fan writes in to say that she:
“Likes what she hears on our News,”
but doesn’t know what it IS that she
“hears on our News.”

...(She later thought to herself,
“Is that the difference BETWEEN being a fan,
and being IN the News?")

....[One of the marching picket signs just over the ridge proclaimed,
“The press is free -- The air waves are free -- The mental waves are free -- The New News Network
is large enough for ALL programs.”]

In discussing a recent event, the kid had noted several possible causes,
both internal and external, and mentioned that it could be some of them,
any one of them, even all of them, and concluded with a semi-rhetoric, “Yes?”
To which the ole man replied, “When a man reaches your level, the answer is
ALWAYS 'Yes!'”

One guy had more fun in his own mind than in anyone else’s -- WHAT A MIND!
