If you want it, get it. If you dream it, believe it. The sky's never the limit. So go on, show the world who you are. Don't be afraid to show your true colors.

Nah... You just did nothing for long enough for the screen-saver to kick in...


(Sorry, but engineers do not believe in god fixing anything more than your spirits ;-) )

Aside: Which great religious person was it that commented that god is not for "fixing real world problems" but merely helps people suffer those problems more easily?
