Actually, Banjer, it was probably accidentally holding the shift key down and typing a "?" where I should have typed a "/".

Now, to those of you who find this thread distasteful, exactly how many of the "bets" that have been placed here do you think are serious? Have you never heard of irony? Have you never seen "MASH" (as Bobert has already pointed out), or read Catch 22? Have you never listened to Country Joe Macdonald's "Fixin' to Die Rag"? Sometimes there are things that are so painful that the only way they can be dealt with is with ironic humor. Not a person who has posted here has any desire to see his/her "prediction" come true.
