My final entry for your competition :

=20

If meteorite collecting were like sex, :

=20

* I would be still have to pay for it, but would be able to get it
with ease on ebay.
* I would get rich selling powdered meteorite instead of Rhino
Horn as an aphrodisiac - finally find a real use for all that moon dust.
* The thumb printed pieces would be the most sought after, by the
ladies anyway.
* No one would ever, ever cut a meteorite! It would be as useful
as...
* Pimps would be selling meteorwrongs far easier than they can
sell something else as something else.
* Size would not matter, and my micro collection would be a whole
lot more popular!
* There would be a whole new meaning to : "do you like me, or is
that a rock in your pocket?"
* My libido would get really confused everytime I worked in the
garden and moved rocks around - It's a brick, it's a babe, it's a
meteorite!
* Grams would replace inches.=20
* Rock hammers and magnets on sticks would replace the latex and
rubber wares in that discreet little shop around the corner.
* A harem would take up a lot less space. Maybe just a 1 by 1
cabinet, not the whole house!=20

=20

I think that Steve has done a great thing with this competition, and
deserves a round of applause. It has kept half my office amused for
days! <End of sucking up to judges/>

=20

This is not intended to offend anyone, and I defy anyone to admit that
they did not smile once during this competition. And one smile is all it
takes to attract a meteorite! Duck!
