    Just a passing thought before I collapse on my bed (still haven't found what attacked me, I'm going with the "I was just imagining it" line of thinking). Looking at the bag for the Ritz Chips I picked up today I read some of the marketing talk on the back of it and see this one: "Fun Shapes" Since when is a shape, fun? If shapes can be fun, what exactly is fun about them? What makes for a boring shape? How about an alright shape? I figure if I can keep asking myself these stupid questions my brain will eventually shutdown...but not until I watch Trigun on AdultSwim :) :zzz: James "then when you go to bed...wait, you dont do that do you....ok....when you plug into the 'hive mind' to charge yourself, ill hack into your head" Nnamdi Onyeyiri over MSN

      It's a fun shape if a alcoholically enhanced chick screams "Ah!!! This looks like a..." and breaks into an uncontrollable giggle.

        I guess it's "fun" if you can pretend it's something other than what it is, e.g. if it's animal-shaped, you can pretend to be Steve Irwin, or Godzilla.

            Godzilla? What's that? A damn good new browser?

              It's more along the lines of a 100-foot tall Japanese lizard that breathes radioactive fire and lives in the ocean. (There was a movie about it within the last couple of years.) John

                  In that case, Godzilla is Mozilla's big brother! It's got 3D super-tabbed browsing with eye-movement gesture recognition, brain-wave mouse navigation and the ability to handle internet connection speeds of 45 TB per second! ;P John
