Re: [MLUG - DISCUSSION] [INSANITY] I don't know what

["Christian M. Cepel" <EMAIL:PROTECTED>]

I registered IPickMyNose.org to put that rant on someday, but I haven't 
gotten around to it.  For fun and because they absolutely have to be 
registered as a set, I registered IEatMyBoogers.org too *grin*

Dunno what I'll put there, but I know for a fact that a high percentage 
of people lie about this one as well.   If for no other reason than I've 
caught them at it when they thought no-one was looking.

Again.   I hope you brought enough for everybody!
