22 Gentoo is to important to depend on guys like me. In real life I'm a
23 slacker. I don't pay my taxes on time. I barely clean my house. I pay my
24 bills usually just often enough so services don't get shutoff. I slack
25 even on going get stamps and mail off the checks. I'm fictitious. I
26 don't respect authority. It would be a terrible choice to put these
27 legal matters into my hands. Unless there is gold/silver/barter/money
28 involved I slack.
