Consider the following axioms carefully:
"Everything's better when it sits on a Ritz."
and
"Everything's better with Blue Bonnet on it."
What happens if one spreads Blue Bonnet margarine on a Ritz cracker? The
thought is frightening. Is this how God came into being? Try not to
consider the fact that "Things go better with Coke".

the new cliche of the date-rape furor: "`No' always means `no'." Will

will be, part of the dangerous alluring courtship ritual of sex and
seduction, observable even in the animal kingdom.
-- Camille Paglia, NY Times, Dec. 14 1990, Op Ed.
