I hate nobody, that jerk! Some days I just want to kick his @$$. All he ever does is complain, get in my way, make weird noises, drive like a maniac, fart in public, vote for the wrong fellow, make war and love with my girlfiend, and borrow money he never intends to pay back. He even spells defense with a 'c' instead of an 's'. How repulsive! People from his country are simply intolerable.

Nobody loves his students. I hate mine. He is so content with his lot in life as a teacher. I find that sickening and wish him serious harm, such as having the ceiling fall on him while in the middle of the greatest class he has ever conducted.

But the bad thing about him is:

Nobody likes me. So I'm going outside to eat worms.

Wow, someone else is drunk. And who spells defence with an 's', anyway?

Well, I'll say this for Nobody:

"Nobody knows the troubles I�ve seen
Nobody knows my sorrow
Nobody knows the troubles I�ve seen
Glory hallelujah.

Sometimes I�m up, sometimes I�m down
Oh yeah, Lord

Sometimes I�m almost to the ground
Oh yes, Lord.
Nobody knows the troubles I�ve seen
Glory hallelujah."

Yes, friends - when your life seems empty and meaningless, when problems beset you on every side, when your future looks bleak and depressing, always remember this:

Nobody cares!

Regards,
John
P.S. May I take this opportunity to plug a great novel by Richard Russo:
"Nobody's Fool". And the movie is pretty good, too, thanks in large measure to a great performance by Paul Newman in the title role.

Now do you see what I mean about nobody? Everybody from his country is like that. Only one solution I can think of. Exile him to nowhere, say what?

Dear grahamb,

I'm not a "churchgoer" anymore, though, if I were, I'd pick one with a choir that sang this sort of music:

http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B0000047QI/ref=pd_sim_music_8/103-4645316-7232607?v=glance&s=music

As got "Spaceballs", this is the only song I recall from that movie:

"Hello my baby, hello my honey, hello my ragtime gal! Send me your kiss by wire, baby my heart's on fire! If you refuse me honey you'll lose me then you'll be left alone, oh baby telephone and tell me I'm your own! "

May the schwartz be with you!
Regards,
John

Showing your age there, John!
I loved the way they referred to so many classic sci-fi films. John Candy was particularly funny: shame he isn't around any more.
