    Did you type that all up yourself, or did you find it in some dark, dank corner of the Intarwab!?!?!

    Either way, it's rather naff to be blunt, although I can see myself on a malicious day playing fetch with a stray dog ina parking lot for the laugh.

    The Animaniac where certainly a great show...

    But this ctrl - c, ctrl - v gets a little tiring at times...

    Can't you just put up a link??
