You were mis-using the flags... - (Simon_Jester) - (3) - April 25, 2003, 03:05:57 PM EDT

I thought of that - (tjsinclair) - (2) - April 25, 2003, 04:25:46 PM EDT

You wouldn't know what normal was if it rode into town on the normal express, kicked down your door with its size normal boots, danced into your living room wearing nothing but the word "normal" and sang "normality is here again" on your dining room table whilst dancing the foxtrot.
