You're OK until you start wearing khakis while you swing dance, drink
brandy and smoke cigars.>>
I am an attorney, and golfing seems to be the most common disease amongst
lawyers and judges. If I make through my life without playing a single round
of golf, I would consider it a point of integrity.
As far as the X-Files goes, I think some of the fans view it as almost true
believers. I perversely view it as a piece of comedy. I mean Dana Scully is
the only one with any sense of reality and she is almost always wrong.
Despite all of her scientific credentials and knowlege, she seems to have a
really handicapped learning curve. When will she ever learn that Fox is
almost always right and that she should believe everything he says?
