I think of it as The Fool's Journey. I've been asked who the "fool" is. It's me, but in the classical sense of the court jester. Only the fool was allowed to tell the king of his follies.

Your Adsvertising is overwhelming me with juicy smells of burgers and a lonely yearning for magic fingers. Where is the 800 number?
yeah, you cartoonists get the big bucks while we the little folk get peanuts. "Money for Nuthin", (grin)
I am with Harley, at least you could provide them with 4 Roses, for heaven's sake.
On the other hand, Harley steals.
Lost me in translation here. Never hears of a magic fingers bed or what 4 roses are. Speak American guys will ya? (((chuckles)))
Um... make that heard (not hears) - grin. Must be speakin Austra(y)ian now!

(((hahahaha))) that's pretty tacky! LOL
