Post #287,992 by hnick 6/28/07 6:55:10 AM Reply	Ok, so it's a joke these days. Civil servant is semantically equivalent to civil master. That's not likely to change in my lifetime. I just wish they'd knock off the bullshit about "land of the free and home of the brave" before games and such. That's also gone forever.

You tossed all the emergency rations into the Marianas Trench, just to amuse yourselves.
