We could truly be a Shakespearean inspiration, you and I. We've all of the class and finesse with none of the idiocy of our Romeos or the madness of our Ophelias. [no they've got the cray BUT WHATEVER details...] At this rate we may even be able to compete with the nations. [NODS] Anyway, that's all the more reason for us to travel together. I'd like a break from my foul luck every now and then and if you've enough to spare, you ought to share the wealth.

As for that, the pattern I've seen so far seems to generally indicate a downhill spiral. Who knows? Perhaps the next one will be just this all day every day, with no way to escape. Death by monotony.
