Religion
is the lead
in the saddle
bags of the
human
intellect

Last word
After you die
your first job
should be to
get your
obituary
written before
someone else
beats you to it
Groupies
There are people
who get all their

unsupported
opinions of

women.
Generally these
categories
overlap.
Believe it or not
Once I was
