Summary: Cancer comes from reading Tom Stanions

Let me be a 6th-grade spelling  teacher:
Correct spelling:				aside
Tom Stanions' spelling:				asside
But the whole paragraph is ridiculous:
Tom Stanions would spell that:			hole
Insert the hole into asside:			assholeide
And the s because he is one:			assholeside.
VOILA!  (C'est magnificque, mais c'est ne pas la recursion.)
I know - belongs on net.flame.  Couldn't resist.  So sue me.

    	 IF THEY SOLVED CANCER THEY WOULD LOSE THEIR FUNDING
    Mr.   Stanions, do you really believe that NCI wants to perpetuate
cancer?  Your statement is tantamount to that.   Aren't  you  insulted
they don't sue you for libel?

   BTW,  I posted a series of short and simple questions as to whether
you know anything about sugar.  When your reply came back  I  was  too
flabbergasted to respond, but I've collected myself.
    A man who gives ten answers to a simple question, none having  any
bearing  on  the question, is not the kind of guy to whom I'd trust my
life...
