While surfing the google for Rich Lee (and there are many), I believe I saw the image of the Kurdish Malak Ta'us, the peacock angel, God's alter ego, who filled seven huge jars with tears in 7,000 years by which the flames of hell were extinguished....if so, for me hell is no more. This is all the more significant in that I was not chewing qat, that mildly narcotic leaf that is as much a social institution among the Kurds as Red Man chewing tobacco is in Alabama.
As I await the next post in this thread, I am reminded that there are people who feel differently about the opinions of Lappos or Zuckerman, Coyle Smoketoomuch, Hilico or the Marx Brothers...as for myself, I have learned something from each of them. I respect anyone who has an opinion on this forum, regardless of background. Nothing I say is out of malice and while my sense of humor (or lack thereof) may not be to everyone's taste-it is only humor.
