Correction: Centaur....

a meadow...")

Silly me. I thought it really was a man walking in a field with his
barking dog.

I think I know what it is... but my mind must
be in the gutter...  IF the "O"s are heads...
it certainly looks like Monica is "doing" Bill.
But where's the desk?  And shouldn't he
be talking on the phone?

Knowing you Krogg, I might be close to the mark.

to "freent"; its absense is to stop the torment of automatic mailers.
