I've always wondered why the dumping-the-patient-in-the-pool trick didn't work ... they just needed more piranhas!

Thanks Silver, for a good laugh again.
You do have a great imagination and sense of humor. I'm sure these two qualities have helped you cope with your hard life.

also, piranhas don't leave behind embarassing evidence that their studies and "treatments" are full of weasel poo! :p

Enid
well, if I was chuck heston and crew, I'd manouver Ceasar, who's behind on his water skis, right over a great white.... :D

You don't have to be mad to have ME, but it sure helps! :p
