Ramundovision in its final death throes

It was fun while it lasted, but Ramundovision's end seems near.

It was a fun ride. A fun fun ride. But alas, all good things must come to an end, and that time has come for Ramundovision. You may ask why, you may wonder why such a promising endeavor must be terminated at such a premature age, but as you ask yourself this, always remember that Ramundovision can live on, and will live on. Not in the smile of a child on the monkey bars, not in the heart of a mourning widow or in the liver of a drunken bum. Not in the lungs of a Bangladeshi chain smoker, the pituitary gland of a deceased fisherman or the colon of a refrigerated pizza pie but within you, Ramundovision's long time readers. Yes Prats, that means you. You too Enrique. Even though you may not be able to care less about this random niche in the vastness of cyber space, you were Ramundovision's first and last readers. You impersonated the very spirit of Ramundovision. Ramundovision salutes you.

Fear not and shed no tears, Ramundovision shall return. When, you ask? It cannot be said.

It cannot be said.

Go with God, my brothers. Go with God.

The Art of Expansion

In a recent chat with a friend:
p**** says: (4:35:59 PM)
i'm trying to write a report

p**** says: (4:36:05 PM)
havingonl half the info i need

ra*** says: (4:39:20 PM)
wide margins, size 13 Arial font, space between paragraphs

ra*** says: (4:39:27 PM)
double spacing goes without saying

p**** says: (4:40:13 PM)
haha

I came up with the idea of wrting up a few guidlines for expanding papers, reports and essays. So for all you poor soul's in p****'s position, pay close attention:

note: the order of these is important, as they go from very sly/cunning/not obvious to very risky/obvious/stupid

i. Double spacing (if not already double spaced)
1. Increase your margin size
2. add another space at the beginning for date/name/subject whatever
3. size 13 Times New Roman font
4. Arial font (size 12, size 13 borders on suicide)
5. add a space at the end of every page
6. Increase your margin size (again)
7. claim you thought the bibliography/works cited page was included in the minimum number of pages specified by the teacher
8. add a space between paragraphs
9. add a title page (again, claim you thought it was included in the page count specified)
10. number the pages, make it look like you used the footer page number tool when in fact you numbered them yourself strategically skipping a number. This works great sometimes, it backfires a lot more times. LAST RESORT.
11. See #10, skip 2 pages. LAST LAST RESORT.

God speed and good luck.
