Ok, according to this, something troubling has come up,
that must be addressed immediately.
*I* am "Kevin in Ottawa".
That other /i/m/p/o/s/t/e/r/ er, claimant to the title
will have to be dealt with. Hmm. He's got one of those
dicey "Hotmail" addresses, so maybe he's not *really* in
Ottawa at all. He probably doesn't even have a guard chicken
for his cubicle (not precisely a requirement, but a telling
detail nontheless).
A showdown of some sort is probably in order. Hmm.
Nerf guns? SuperSoakers? Hmm. More thought required.
Will get back to you.
Note to self: Must also deal severely with Rose,
who is attempting to legitimize the pretender's claim.
(Come chicken, we will plot and scheme together.)
/kevin . . . . . . in Ottawa, dammit!
;->
What? Nearly 3 o'clock on a Friday afternoon of a "between
projects" week, and you had to ask?
