Is THAT where the term "munchkin" derives from? :))))

Actually he never tells anybody that. But a couple of times people tried
to pull a fast one on him they ended up as his zombies. :) Well not
actually but they stood confused by his spirits before they even
conyemplated to harm him.

But you can go ahead and hate him all you like. I know everyone else
does. :)
In any case I am forwarding this string to him any day now, so if any
body wants to say something to him, be my guest (litterally!)


If anybody remembers the story with the frozen water and barriers, he's
the one that made me think about it!
You see? anything can be dealt with without any home rules and bullying.
