                              So, if you sit up in the bath tub, you are half drowning? Should you or should you not in that case be half rescued? :confused:

                                      Agnes? I believe Messrs. Pratchett and Gaiman were pulling our legs on that one. Apparently the origin of the word Nice is, from the Latin word Nescius.

                                          I told my psychiatrist that I was hearing voices in my head. He said you don't have a psychiatrist!

                                          Never crush a roach to kill it, if you can possibly help it. You can inadvertently release any eggs it may be carrying, and if you're not diligent about wiping up and disposing of the mess (preferably with copious amounts of fire,) then you'll soon have an even worse problem on hand.
