Or did you pay your parents back for all the money (to say nothing of time, effort, tears, etc.) they spent on you? Or did you figure you didn't ask to be born so you owed them absolutely nothing whatsoever? (Talk about parasite!) For some reason, this reminds me of something Harry Truman is supposed to have said (no idea if it's true or not, but it sure _sounds_ like something Truman would have said): A reporter asked him, "Is it true you called Richard Nixon a son-of-a-bitch?" And Truman is supposed to have answered, "How could I? He claims to be a self-made man." Tom Beck www.prydonians.org www.mercerjewishsingles.org "I always knew I'd see the first man on the Moon.
