> Well... not exactly. I'm short, and I *do* have glasses, but you missed the boat on the rest of it. I'm not at all plump (I used to be fat, but that was years ago) and I actually have dark green-brown eyes. Nice-looking does *not* apply... you'd be closer with "hideous," "grotesque" or "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGH!"

Darien, ol' pal, repeat after me:

"I'm good enough.

I'm smart enough.

And doggone it, people like me.

As a matter of fact, I rule.

There, I said it: I rule.

I.

RULE.

Haha! I rule! I kick butt! In the parlance of the American inner city, I am "da bomb"!

I'm better than Arnold Schwarzawhatever!

Better than stuffed-crust pan pizza!

Pierce Brosnan? What a wuss!

(Okay, he does make a cool Bond.)

But SO WHAT?! I still rule! There's more rulingness in my little finger than in the whole body of, well, some other ruling-type person!

[pant, pant, pant]

There. I feel better now. I think I'll send Issachar a nice little nVidia GeForce 256 DDR graphics card and 128MB of ECC PC100 SDRAM, just to show how much I appreciate his concern."
