Friends, as long religions have been the theme lately for so much arguing here is a related little story :-) -- Brother John entered the 'Monastery of Silence' and the abbot said, "Brother, this is a silent monastery, you are welcome here as long as you like, but you may not speak until I direct you to do so." Brother John lived in the monastery for a full year before the abbot said to him: "Brother John, you have been here a year now, you may speak two words." Brother John said, "Hard Bed." "I'm sorry to hear that" the abbot said. "We will get you a better bed." The next year, Brother John was called by the abbot. "You may say another two words Brother John." "Cold Food." said Brother John, and the abbot assured him that the food would be better in the future. On his third anniversary at the monastery, the abbot again called Brother John into his office. "Two words you may say today." "I Quit." said Brother John. "It is probably best." said the abbot. "All you have done since you got here is complain." -- Cheers, +----| Joao Paulo de Carvalho |------ + | [log in to unmask] | +--------| Salvador-Bahia-Brazil |------+
