452.0. "Bifurcate Pontification..." by MARRHQ::MALLONEE () Tue Dec 08 1987 03:04

    Sirs,
    
       OK, I'll assume, just for the sake of argument, your preposterous
    notion that money is *NOT* everything...

            As the saying goes:-
    
                "Money may not buy you happiness but at least
                 you can be miserable in comfort."

    Actually, it was indeed a mistake.  A mistake so profound as to
    shake the very heavens!  But due to the (surprising) fact that there
    are several replies, I think this matter deserves deeper scrutiny.
    
    Despite the fact that pontification is a thing not casually bifurcated,
    and indeed, bifurcation may easily be pontificated at a minimum
    untill the cows come home, and also in response to many burning
    issues of The Day.  
    
    Wheras money may be the root of all evil, it feels great wrapped
    around one's stem. (Ahem)  But seriously, what would life be without
    the cool, reassuring warmth of an irresponsibly overpriced stereo
    moving us into the nether-world of the simulated Live Performance?
    Or the post-coital glow induced by 750ml of '45 Chateau Latour?
    Or the exhillaration of the mere knowledge of our Lamborghini's
    (theoretical) velocity ceiling?  (Not to mention the witnessing of
    this ceiling Real-Time.)  
    
    Oh, God...  it's almost 5.
