I'm entitled to my opinion, and you are also . . .

But not all opinions are equal. If my car breaks down I'll take the opinion of a mechanic over that of a plumber. If my stomach hurts I'll give preference to the opinion of a physician.

Yeah, but whose opinion do you take if you have a SERIOUS problem. (Hint : Mine)

3 more punches on my coffee card and I'll be entitled to a free cup. :)

A Cup of Tea
Nan-in, a Japanese master during the Meiji era (1868-1912), received a university professor who came to inquire about Zen.
Nan-in served tea. He poured his visitor’s cup full, and then kept on pouring.
The professor watched the overflow until he no longer could restrain himself. “It is overfull. No more will go in!”
“Like this cup,” Nan-in said, “you are full of your own opinions and speculations. How can I show you Zen unless you first empty your cup?”[/satire]

You're entitled to hold that erroneous opinion. You are also entitled to know that the true answer is George's opinion. All hail George, the computer monitor fairy.

Many have tried to take out George. They all fail. He is like ninja...stealthy little *******. ;)

I'm trying to remember what happened last time. Maybe I sent the People's Democratic Frubal Ninja Army after him? I dunno.

So what that everyone shares your opinion. Opinions are worthless and thus your opinion is worthless as is my agreement with you. And that's a fact.

I get it! The moral is: Don't drink tea with a Zen master unless you pour your own! Right?

He should have also pelted the professor with finger sandwiches, just for effect. But that's just my opinion.
