Actually, I was only half serious when I posted this -- I should've included a
half smile but I left it off just to see how this would have been interpreted.
I am in pretty good command of my hormones (even though I can't keep them in
/usr/gregbo/hormones).  However, I sometimes feel (well, you know how one feels
sometimes) and I know people who weren't married who felt that way, and now
they don't because they are married, so I guess you know what I am talking 
about.  (further discussion in private mail for whomever wishes)
