BranShea Carpal Tunnel Registered: 06/23/06 Posts: 5249 Loc: Netherlands, the Hague	I must admit my incapacity here. A different angle of approach seems impossible to me. Very Good!

BranShea Carpal Tunnel Registered: 06/23/06 Posts: 5249 Loc: Netherlands, the Hague	The faint silver lining of a derisory smirk??? Hajhaahah! Clark Gable's moustache in 'Gone with the Wind'. Good, good..... I really like this set of words so I think I'll stretch the deadline till I get something out of them. If ever.
