IJMC Cheap HMO, Cheap Schmoe

                   IJMC - Cheap HMO, Cheap Schmoe

Bad day...well, it has been a good day, but a new game has been put into 
my hands that I know I am going to spend a lot of time playing. With 
classes having just started, this is a bad thing. Granted, it could be 
worse...we could be a month from finals. See, there is always a silver 
lining, you just have to look for it...                            -dave
