Trying to keep my head above water. It'll be dark. It will be black, but hopefully humorous. Here's a bit about me.

Uhlich </em> </p></blockquote> <blockquote><p>Dive into the sea of thought, and find there pearls beyond price.<br> <em>Moses Ibn Ezra, Shirat Yisrael </em> </p></blockquote> <blockquote><p>Anyone can hold the helm when the sea is calm.<br> <em>Publilius Syrus (~100 BC), Maxims </em> </p></blockquote> <blockquote><p>The gaudy, blabbing, and remorseful day<br> Is crept into the bosom of the sea.<br> <em>William Shakespeare (1564 - 1616), "King Henry VI Part II", Act 4 scene 1</em> </p></blockquote> <p> <small> <a href="http://coaster.blog.co.uk/2005/10/20/title~248425/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>
