You should only do that every 12 hours tops.  That's Rx strength.  :)

Maybe "Unicorn"?  Rare and beautiful.  And an apparent solution of mythical
nature.  Just a thought...

Every time I see "The Pig" in print, I'm reminded of the video for Pink
Floyd's "Delicate Sound of Thunder" concert, where during one of the songs
("One of These days", probably) they have the huge inflatible pig above the
audience, and you see this guy in the crowd mouthing (but not audible),
"It's a f***ing pig!!!"

Every time I see the words, I can't get that concert out of my head.  :)
