or any combination of those that they were submitted for inclusion.

Um, today is May 24th, 2007, in case anyone is really interested.

What does the "Mod" mean, anyway? And what is FAQ about the
so-called "Mod Quote?"

This is neither funny, nor enlightening. Oh, but wait, it was
written by the troll known as The Coward Hicks. This means, to the
tiny minds, that it must be quoted because The Coward likes having
Faux_Pseudo lips all over his ass.

[second gratuitous ascii "art" line deleted]

Bugger off. The only Frequently Asked Question about your so-called
"Mod Quotes" is, why would anyone bother?

cordially, as always,

That explains the mood-swings! You're living in the future! Personally,
I would choose to live more than one month into the future, but to each
his own and all that! ;-) Don't feel too badly about it, though; I
often get accused of living in the past ... (perhaps by others that are
living in the same future you're in???)

If he could do so, I'm sure he'd live in the far past, say the last time
the Leaves win the Cup.

If you'd shown up in court today, you could have told the judge you're
just eager to get on with the proceedings!

Is this for the child molestation charge, or the domestic violence?
