If The Da Vinci Code had only sold 10,000 copies, do you think Lee and Baigent would give a rat's ass? Hell no. Only when they saw a pay out from both the book and the movie, did they go after Brown.

First off, you have to be an idiot not to know that supper and dinner are completely different. At least in THIS country! America! Supper is eaten at five and dinner at seven or eight. If you don't know that then just go back to wherever you're from and leave us alone! Support our troops!!! I’m so sorry anyone accused you of stealing.

Got it. I'm worried that the paper I'm writing borrows too heavily from another paper. So if I'm hearing you right, I don't need to modify the paper, but rather just wear a little more make-up and perhaps a lower-cut blouse? Be young and hot. Got it.

You know, as in, not one without the other. I mean, they are both o.k. on their own, but together...you have just collectively revolutionized modern poetry. Congratulations!

Unfortunately, as an only child, I never had the opportunity to use my older sister's term paper on The French Revolution as my own. But sections of the World Book always came in handy. Does anyone use the World Book anymore? How high tech and cool. Unfortunately, as an only child, I never had the opportunity to use my older sister's term paper on The French Revolution as my own.
