i don't know what the ---- that joke had to do with CPTC, but it was so funny, and even made me laugh a little, that after i read it, i had the thought that you deserved at the least a 5 red stars for it! but then, after that, i had another thought, wondering what the hidden message might be, that you were trying to hide in it? and so i pondered and pondered it, when all of the sudden, i realized what you were trying to say so occultly: the transmission represents pimurry, and the goat represents nvercovr, and the 2 guys standing on the edge of the deep hole represents you and me, and the farmer represents FATE, OR PROVIDENCE! AND SO, THEY BOTH FELL DOWN INTO THE DEEP HOLE, AND COULDN'T GET OUT! AND SO IT IS WITH NEGATIVE, BASHING, SLANDERING KIND OF PEOPLE! isn't that it, that is to say, the moral hidden in the story? have a great day, craps! i enjoy your posts! we're both going to be blessed financially, pretty soon, and sooner rather than later! "YEP! CPTC HAS COME A LONG WAYS BABY, SINCE THE GOOD OLD DAYS OF ABOUT 5 YEARS AGO! GO CPTC!!! GLTA SINCERELY, JMS
