A little advice from beyond the grave
For anyone considering giving up, for any reason.

"Never attribute more intelligence to your enemy than to yourself and your brothers. Always trust your brothers and yourself." - Abbie Hoffman, Revolution for the Hell of It

And that goes for your sisters too. Don't get depressed, get angry. And stay involved.

:hippie:

5. I love Abbie Hoffman - I named my boy cat after him
Although I tend to call him Abbott since everyone would refer to him as a girl cat and Abbott gets in trouble all the time. But he is my Abbie!
