The real trouble with reality is that there's no background music.

Very, very, but VERY cool. Marvelous, I daresay. I do appreciate it.

There. I hope this makes up for the lack of interest of this forum.
Which, BTW, of course perfectly illustrates their "intellectual maturity" and also their self-aggrandizement.

But what wouldn't one do in order to feel - rightly so or not - they are part of an elite ?

Once more this person praises with faint damns.  It is becoming so tedious.
Thousands of years ago cats were worshipped.  They have not forgotten.

Thanks for that. I am part of the elite, and we do appreciate the finer things in life. Now Jolly Green, be a dear and get me another cocktail, won't you?  
one must be intelligent to get intelligent answers.

Haven't checked it out yet but I do like cbc.ca's archives section.  Its where I get all my history of Canada from.

I dunno...maybe register?
 
...religion has made some contributions to civilization. It helped in the early days to fix the calendar, and it caused Egyptian priests to chronicle ecplipses with such care that in time they were able to predict them. These two services I am prepared to acknowledge, but I do not know of any others

You are certainly taking great pains to appear "not-generalizing".
I am perfectly aware of what you are trying to do, and once more a stupid comment was delivered.

My post was not without sense, but it has been lost on you.

Besides, kitten, nobody - at all - was interested in this thread before I commented, which proves the point I was trying to make.
