The best math you can learn is how to calculate the future cost of current decisions.

Theaters = of war perhaps - t (trillion) + heaters (guns)  My excuse is that it's been a long time since I read Mickey Spillane ...and I had to fight my computer's spell check which wanted to see theatres!

"Attempts almost" = trie(s) which is guarded by an upset "always" (ever->reve) which gives us (tarrah!) retrieve. Phew!

To waste one second of one's life is a betrayal of one's self. I wonder what's on television...?
