Remember those funny rules of metal? This isn't one of them. Too repeditive.
---- "Another day, another Doug." "I'll fight you on one condition. That you lower your nipples." " 'Tis a lie! Thy backside is whole and ungobbled, thou ungrateful whelp!"

The grammar makes this. (Yes I'm following you M C, don't worry about it.)
---- "Wise men talk because they have something to say; fools because they have to say something."
