    someone once said (i forgot who) that it ain't
    braggin' if you can do it or you did it.

    the other night i played me some Fantasy Five
    (Calif lotto game). You have to pick all five
    numbers to win the big cheese. Lucky cat that
    i am i picked four out of five. How much did
    it pay? $413 bucks. But wait, that's not all.
    I also got a five dollar 'scratcher' ticket and
    I hit hundred bucks on that prick too. Son of
    a bitch, i got $513 for ten dollar investment.
    But wait it gets better, i had to take our dog
    to the vet so she could get nine teeth removed.
    Cha-ching $550 bucks for that shit. Well ez
    come ez go. So much for Christma$. ha ha.

    ### - well done that man!

    'coz 4 outta 5 ain't bad!

    plus will relate to ya a strange little cryptic tale was told when first reaching that same 4th floor/level heh...

    some soldiers were were out on long-range maneuvers when they ran outta
    food so they sent one dude to go get some more, and when he came back with
    the food a couple of days later they all appeared to have completely disappeared??

    well he looked and poked around but couldn't find anyone, and was just
    about to walk away when one of his mates, who btw were all hiding buried
    in the mud totally camouflaged while waiting for the food, slowly stood up
    and waved to him to come back, but when seeing this mud-monster rising up
    outta the field he completely got the horrors and ran away! :)

    ***

    and yes, i know it's a kinda daft story, but in reality his friends and associates were all still there, albeit completely covered in the mud
    they'd been hiding in?

    he'd gone and gotten the food alright but failed to recognise them when he
    came back 'coz they were all hiding in the mud :)

    and the moral of the story?

    don't get the horrors and run away just 'coz things might suddenly look a
    bit strange/unusual heh...

    iow: be prepared then for a bit of a jolt/shock if/when things (or even
    the world) suddenly looks different ;)

    and good luck!

    Fancy that. Someone like you having superiority airs and graces based
    on a misunderstanding of precisely what Orwell was trying to impart.
    Namely, that people under great duress can lull themselves into a
    repetitious dream state as a means of surviving said duress - nothing
    to do with your immature wallyworld concept of man and nature.
