It would be nice for all the Vonnegut fans out there to change their profile quotes to a favorite quote from Vonnegut for a week.

And I like the way the spell check lets his name through without suggesting correction.

I play so many different people at any given moment, that sometimes I forget who I am.

What was that Acrimone asked a while ago... What Would Grasshopper Do? I wish I knew who the ideal Grasshopper was. I'd pretend to be her all the time.
