I'm crying - and I am not sure why. It could be due to laughing so much, or perhaps it is just despair.

I remember once making a fire at a Civil War event (English Civil War, that is) and I used a magnifying glass to ignite it. Someone asked to see it, and he held the glass up to the sun and was about to look through it when I punched him. He was really perplexed as to why I should have done that.....
