Kristy, Why isn't that fair? Chris admitted he made a sarcastic comment that wasn't communicated very well. I also like Chris's forthright observations and I would like to understand better what he was trying to say. As for the rest of your post, to be honest, I have no idea what you were talking about! (although I did understand the happy Easter bit : )

I think Chris--as always-- is very clear. I only suggest that he think in terms of A & D.. and oh-- oh yeah: Potomac.

I brought together K and M, but alas my communication was ineffective as a method to transmit thoughts. I was being sarcastic about the Internet, and intending to be agreeing with ED. Personal revelations on the Internet, how like water at a river side. Also, for some reason, the word rare was activating a memory of Tatterhood where "rare" == "odd but not bad". "One flower will be fair, one flower will be rare." Like here: http://scandinavian.wisc.edu/mellor/taleballad/pdf_files/tatterhood.pdf Anyways, lesson learned: when I use sarcasm on the internets, I have to explain myself.
