writing comes easy
to those with inspired pens
its like shaking hands

Touch, but don't look

We got some folks around here that could have been politicians if they had a mind to, they shake hands so well!
Well said Jack.

Can you get paid to write? Maybe I should get a degree that tells me I can? I prayed when I was a boy that I would be a writer. Maybe i shoulda specified that I meant a "professional writer!" Cheers. For fun.

Rub the lamp again Kent. This time be more specific.

Here, we all get paid, but we don't get paid here.

Here, use my buffing cloth, but save a wish for me...here.

Here! Hear! (Did you hear that?)

Touch, but don't look
