Why did I get serious right now? I was just having a good time after reading this: ----- http://www.bash.org/?475199 ---- <Korras> friendship among women: one doesn't come home one night, and tells her bf that she spent the night with a female friend of hers. bf calls 10 of her friends, and none know a thing. <Korras> friendship amongst men: same thing happens. man says he spent the night at a friends place. gf calls 10 of his friends. 8 confirm he has been there, and the two others say he's still there. ----- I guess somethings are meant to be serious, namely our professions. :-) Cheers, Joao.
