    Hello w:

    I'd like to thank the academy and my agent. Mom and dad, too. They always encouraged me. Curlyben gave me my first audition. But, most of all, I want to thank Wondergirl, because she keeps excellent track of my apostrophe's.

    Hey Wondergirl, does "apostrophe" need an apostrophe here? I didn't think so. All that gray matter is a curse sometimes.

    Bill Gates made two extremely smart business decisions in his life. First, to get in on the ground floor of personal computing and second, to license DOS to IBM rather than sell it to them. Other than that I would hardly put him in genius category. He's not even a very good programmer.
