Except for this comment by Mayor Daly. LOL
I remember when he said it.
It was after police busted up an anti-war rally during the 1968 Democratic
Convention.
It's still a crowd pleaser in Chicago and gets laughs every time it's
repeated here. : )

I got it.
I chuckled.
I moved on.
I finally found the 8-track tape I lost under my couch 20 years ago.
Dust bunnies had grabbed it.

We just went off on a tangent.
an OLD tangent
ROFL
I wish I still had my 8-track player.
You could put one of those in and it would play forever!!!
Well, unless the tape jammed while you were sleeping. Then you'd wake up to
a very warm cartridge.
o_O
Here's yer original post. hehehe
I was looking through some books in my 3D book library and came across a 5
1/4 inch disk I was looking for a decade ago. "Better late than never!"
doesn't sound quite right in this instance. "Virtual Reality Creations" (c)
1993 The Waite Group.

Will these eggs be colored differently or marked in some way to be able to
reconize them?
I mean, what if some poor little kid has a devil of a time finding eggs,

If the rules of this *G* rated chat room don't suit you, perhaps you would
be happier in another of the hundreds of fantastic worlds AW has to offer.
Plz check them out by hitting F9 to bring up the *worlds* tab and make your
selection.
