Gods, I was feeling pretty fine untill I read this... darn I almost
managed to block the fact that I'm going to be 30 next year from my
mind, and judging by the fact that I haven't needed my walking stick

SR1 fire arms rules are better, pre-IE world seemed so much
cleaner... if I could only find back my first ed rule book.

Write me in for the Fossile Club, and get me a pretty
nurse to tuck me in at night.

Grumble.. just rejoined the list after two years of absence and now
