It is the mojito, no, the 1992 goatee of signoffs. It was cool if you were one of the first five to import it here from London. How many ways are there to say "I am a follower, someone who has never had an oringial thought in my life, someone hwo is ten years behind the curve"?

I plan to start answering "Cheers" with "Tally ho" in both email and IRL. This should ensure that absolutely no one will ever talk to me again.
