A while ago I posted an article casting my aspersions on rogue. (5.3)
I apologize and realize the error in that behavior.  I have come to
realize that rogue is, after all, winnable, given an unobtainable
amount of luck.  Uh oh, did I say 'unobtainable'?  Yes, I did!  But, then
there are those of you who have won, or at least claim to have, won.  Oops,
did I say 'claim'?  Of course I did!  Who could possibly have won this
frigging mess?  I submit to you that such claims are LIES, ALL LIES!  OR
THEY CHEATED, WHICH IS WORSE THAN LYING.  YAAAGHHH, GRRRRRR!  HERE'S TO
THUNDERING HERDS OF BLACK UNICORNS UP KEN ARNOLDS'S NOSE, AND HOBGOBLINS
IN YOUR UNDERWEAR, ALL YOU ALLEGED WINNERS, HAH!

Now, for a positive contribution:

    The rogueists ABC's.

	If you've never seen a 'D' before,
	you'll wonder what the 'D' stands for.

	You'll know when it flames you to your death,
	that 'D' must surely stand for dog-breath.
