I hold it true, whate'er befall;
I feel it, when I sorrow most;
'Tis better to have loved and lost
Than never to have loved at all.

What does it say?


Hi Joe,
1st paragraph from the article;

In Philadelphia researchers at the U. of Pa. find, possessing a gun is strongly associated with getting shot. Since,"guns did not protect those who possessed them," they conclude,"People should rethink their possession of guns," "this is like noting that possession of a parachute is strongly associated with being injured when jumping from a plane, then concluding that Skydivers would be better off unencumbered by safety equipment designed to slow their desent." Can this be as stupid as it sounds? asks Stewart Baker at "Skating on Stilts." Having shelled out the $30 for the privilidge of reading the entire article from the "American Journal of Public Health," he confirms the answer is "yes!"

That's the beginning. I thought it was amusing and at first I thought maybe that kal baby may have written it:ph34r::DB|;)
