    First i was like oh i remember that guy, creative comeback! But then i read your link.... and this guy rocks! He set up a deal with arguably the most powerful economic being on Tatooine, Jabba the Hutt, to live rent free with all he can eat and drink every day for telling one good joke a day!

    Some of the quotes about him from that link:

    "...Crumb was treated as lowly vermin, though in truth he was very intelligent."

    "...survived any attempts to end his life..."


    So did you mean that Narol, has been treated badly but is very intelligent and has survived all the attempts to take out his gladiators?

    Haha, well, there's the rub. I thought I'd test the waters with a nice backhanded compliment to see if the little guy would bother to first read the post before shooting from the hip. I think we got our answer. So Mr. Crumb, let's test your literary skills one more time with this gem of a link. Primus is much like good 'ol Frank Sanatra's song "That's Life". Read the lyrics, listen to the song, and you'll know that your ranking today won't be your ranking tomorrow.

    Nice song, indeed quite fitting for the tough life in Primus !

    Personnally, the challenges of Primus always remind me of this famous poem of Rudyard Kipling :

    IF.....

    IF you can keep your head when all about you
    Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,
    If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
    But make allowance for their doubting too;
    If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
    Or being lied about, don't deal in lies,
    Or being hated, don't give way to hating,
    And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise:


    If you can dream - and not make dreams your master;
    If you can think - and not make thoughts your aim;
    If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
    And treat those two impostors just the same;
    If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken
    Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
    Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
    And stoop and build 'em up with worn-out tools:


    If you can make one heap of all your winnings
    And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
    And lose, and start again at your beginnings
    And never breathe a word about your loss;
    If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
    To serve your turn long after they are gone,
    And so hold on when there is nothing in you
    Except the Will which says to them: 'Hold on!'


    If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
    ' Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch,
    if neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,
    If all men count with you, but none too much;
    If you can fill the unforgiving minute
    With sixty seconds' worth of distance run,
    Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
    And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son!
