What does it matter which? Isn't the laughter the goal, after all? ;-)

I'll never forget Kermit the Frog, one of my heroes, in a uniquely
poignant(sp) moment, in "The Muppet Movie." The line was, "Millions
Of People Happy..." And I swear on my Mother's grave, that sock puppet
had stars in his eyes, theatrically speaking.

But that has always resonated with me as a pretty cool life goal:
"Millions of people happy."

So, I try to aspire to "class clown", while also attempting to promote
my own particular brand of trans-meta-para-dyno-infra-philosopho-ergono-
radio-femto-gefilte-preposto-scientific quasiknowledge, that can only be
found within, underneath the noise of the voices that are already
directing you, _especially vehemently,_ to resist your own awakeness,
which means the uncreation of the evil, which to [ERRRNT - LOST CARRIER]

And I betcha "not get killed by some wacko empire builder's armies" is
only the tip of the iceberg as to possibilities for happiness worldwide.

I know it's right up there in the top thing of my agenda. %-}

Cheers!
Rich
