I read that it only gives a slight advantage, but every bit counts, right?

Man, it's the sublime little moments in life that get me through.

And you can't make them happen, you just have to be patient and wait for it.

Post by: S.P. Rodriguez on February 29, 2008, 10:27:16 am: Maybe, but it was almost TOO well scripted. I think Mr. Mali may be playing to the audience. It makes me want to recommend some Laurie Berkner music so he can "learn how to be himself". Unless this is Burzmali being himself, at which point he's pretty much screwed and even children's music will do nothing for him.

But it's so f'ing hard to be patient.

Can this fit on one of those motivational posters?

You'll have to imagine an appropriate picture (http://www.smh.com.au/ffximage/2005/04/08/matrix_wideweb__430x326.jpg):

Statistics

They lie. You win!
