Dear Sagette,
I need a woman's advice....but a Sagette will do I guess. Anyway, I have
this fiancee` who has been waiting for an engagement ring for some time
now. I have no clue as to what I am doing though. Do you think I could
successfully fool her into thinking that one of those cheap little "Made
in Mexico" rings at Wal-Mart, the $5.99 ones, was a real live diamond
ring? Should I try to pull it off?
Sincerely,
Cheap Procrastinator in Georgia
Dear Procrastinator,
Actually, it would be more economical to purchase one out of a gumball
machine.

I (eener) have an email pal named CoG up in Canada, and we had an email
conversation recently regarding air travel. He asked me if I was going to
visit him sometime and said he wondered what it would cost for a plane
ticket to Phoenix. I replied back wondering what Phoenix had to do with
me visiting Canada??? He replied back with the following email...
"uhh... yes Horatio, or do I forget myself? ...I essentially am not in
madness, but mad in craft.. .thus, conscience does make cowards of us all.
O, what a rogue and peasant slave am I! I am but mad north-north-west:
when the wind is southerly I know a hawk from a handsaw. O villain,
villain, smiling, damned villain! That one may smile, and smile, and be a
villain; I loved Rebecca; forty thousand brothers could not, will their
quantity of love, make up my sum.
O, that this too too-solid flesh would melt, thaw, and resolve itself into
a dew! Or that the everlasting had not fix'd His canon 'gainst
self-slaughter! God! O God! How weary, stale, flat, and unprofitable seem
to me all the uses of this world! Fie on't! O fie! 'tis an unweeded
garden, that grows to seed; things rank and gross in nature posses it
merely. That it should come to this!"
I found it quite humorous that he should reply to my email in this manner
and wrote him back saying so...he wondered at first why I thought it was
funny, so I said I thought it was humorous to get Shakespeare quotes back
when I asked what Canada had to do with Phoenix. He said he figured it
was a bit humorous. I asked him if I could print it in FME, and he said
"I suppose, if you like.. just put at the bottom: Various quotes from
Shakespeares "Hamlet" arranged and chosen by CoG. :-)" Anyway, I just
wanted to share that with y'all. (by the way, it turns out he was talking
'bout Phoenix because his dad lives there)
