   Exactly.
   Oh dear, I fear that either my sense of humor has become far too dry
for general consumption or the nationwide uptightness has resulted in a
"humor drought" among others. Some friends of ours have a small crystal
orb that they call "god". They don't _literally_ mean that this small
crystal orb is the Lord and Creator of All Creation. It's just a small
bit of mildly blasphemous fun and a play on the foolishness of many of the
"New Agers". I find this sort of thing funny; your mileage may vary.
   All I meant was: I have met my Hero(ine) and have not found her wanting
(other than for height).

P.S. Anyone who is having trouble understanding something I wrote, please,
   write for an explanation. It was probably meant to be humorous.
