      I'm not sure how I feel about number 2.
      But it did in fact make me laugh so hard I was afraid I was going to wake sleeping children.
      I strongly disagree with the assertion that I come in 2nd at Settlers well. I do not. (Except just TONIGHT I lost that stinkin' game TWICE. Oh, wait – that makes YOU correct. Stink.)
