There are very few books that I’ll read more than once. This is one of them.

Aqua,

I agree with your assessment. Only by keeping members too scared to do anything or look at anything outside of the cult is keeping it running. The fear of disconnection keeps many in. The fear f being ‘sec-checked’ keeps others rooted. The sea ogres have the fear of the RPF to keep them in and in line.

without the fear of retaliation, most (if not all) would leave.

Aqua,

I was absent for a little while due to having to catch up with all that dratted work that went unfinished while I was at conference, so Im a little behind. (the work elves were obviously on vacation and failed to complete everything in my absence). I saw your post- you did a much better job explaining the point than I did!

we know what you are rolling OSD, and it sure isn’t chocolate Easter eggs, though I’m sure those would be great for later.

“I wish I were allergic to chocolate”

Because I love it so much and lack the will power to resist it.

Kinda like I feel about you, Yawn 🙂

A guy who is pretty well intoxicated goes into a bar to order yet another beer.
The guy sits himself down on the barstool noticing a rabbit hopping around on the bar top.

Customer to Bartender: what’s a rabbit doing on the bar top?
Bartender: He’s our bar mascot.
Customer: What are all these small round things laying on the bar top
Bartender: They’re Smart Pills
Customer: Smart Pills, whadda mean “Smart Pills’
Bartender: Well you take a few & they make ya smart.
Customer: I could use some of these I ain’t so smart. Customer puts several in his mouth
& screams out…OMG….. this tastes just like SHIT!!!!.
Bartender: See, there ya go….you’re getting Smarter Already.

We will be more than happy to take that dastardly chocolate off your hands…gladly!
