If the letters were cut away from folded up paper, and unfolded, you would find the perfect likeness of Van Gogh's self portrait. Scottie, I've seen you in the manuals before, are any of these yours? What's good for the gander is good for the goose. A doctor a day keeps the apple away. What doesn't make you stronger will kill you.
