    Hi. I am naughty. Will you come and play +-----------+
    with me? Not parcheesi, silly. You know | |
    what I mean. Come and play stuff with me. | |
    Let's play on my bed. There. Oh, I better | |
    take off my shoes. You too. Come on, | |
    just take them off. There, now lets play. |$$$$$exyGal|

  5. Tragic news ... Stephen King troll dead at 32 by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    I just heard some news over Police radio - a Slashdot visitor was found dead in his Chicago home this morning.
    The young man of 32 was found bloodied and bruised by an apparent assault with a number of Stephen King hardback novels.
    He was rushed to hospital but the injuries were too severe to be treated sufficiently. Police have begun to compile a list of
    suspects. It is thought that Stephen King himself may have been responsible for the assault.

    I'm sure everyone in the Slashdot community will miss him - even if you didn't enjoy his work,
    there's no denying his contributions to popular culture. Truly an American icon.

    Gee i guess i shouldn't joke about something like O'Reilly books. People just don't seem to have a sense of humor any more. I expressed my opinion and got modded down cause i apparently insulted your god or something. For O'Reillys sake calm down.
