Egg Eye Yep, @EugenesDDen, it's really all about anticipation. This assumes that you either are either lucky and/or have mastered the art of BS or else, OR ELSE, and hopefully this is the case, you know what you're talking about (the better you know it the easier it...

Egg Eye @EugenesDDen The brain's not so bad either though, you have to admit! But of course, I realize the biased nature of what's telling me that probably plays into it a little bit! Also kind of partial to my skin! Yea, epidermis! But, yes, the...
