How DARE you turn this horrible traged into the "Peter Lucas" hour. You are
lower than the lowest. All of Oz and all of Usenet knows you don't have a
spare buck in your pocket. Karma will soon be visiting you for trying to
turn this horrible situation into the "Peter Lucas saves the day" thread.
Absolutely disgusting.

Karma is an unforgiving bitch Lucas. She'll be visiting you soon enough.
