IJMC - Top Ten Signs God Is Appearing On Your TV
So what do you say when people are watching the creation of a nightly
IJMC? Not much other than, "Hi Alyssa, Pete, and Ben." Good night,
Alyssa, Pete, and Ben. No, really, I mean that. G'night. -dave
P.S. I apologize about the advertisement. I kinda felt that I should keep
the original intact, even with the advertisement. Say "g'night dave."
G'night dave.

Ruminations & Ponderances
I once thought that if I had all the money
in the world, I would give some to my friends,
but that would be pretty stupid, because then
I wouldn't have all the money in the world anymore.
