It's known that too much caffeine can cause hallucinations. It's called caffeine intoxication.

Corinne,
As a grammar freak myself, I will tell you that it is perfectly acceptable to put a preposition at the end of a sentence. And it is fine if the beginning of a sentence is where a conjunction is at.

Weird, I found this website on my own a few days ago. One that isn't listed there is this:

A white man goes with a guide to observe an Indian tribe. There he sees three women. There is an older woman on a hippopotamus skin and two other women on other types of hides. The white man asks his guide why everyone seems to be paying attention to the older woman. The guide responds, "The squaw of the hippopotamus is equal to the sum of the squaws of the other two hides."

Alice—

That's really weird because for some reason so did I. I thought it was in the article but then I went back and read it and it wasn't there.

The Ernie Awards sound extremely sexist. Even if they award a few to women, the panel is all female.

Also, "The Air Force Wright Laboratory in Dayton, Ohio, for suggesting the research and development of a “gay bomb,' which would cause enemy troops to become sexually attracted to each other". 30 Rock FTW.

More Rand:
"There is a fundamental moral difference between a man who sees his self-interest in production and a man who sees it in robbery. The evil of a robber does not lie in the fact that he pursues his own interests, but in what he regards as to his own interest; not in the fact that he pursues his values, but in what he chose to value; not in the fact that he wants to live, but in the fact that he wants to live on a subhuman level (see “The Objectivist Ethics”).

"If it is true that what I mean by “selfishness” is not what is meant conventionally, then this is one of the worst indictments of altruism: it means that altruism permits no concept of a self-respecting, self-supporting man—a man who supports his life by his own effort and neither sacrifices himself nor others. It means that altruism permits no view of men except as sacrificial animals and profiteers-on-sacrifice, as victims and parasites—that it permits no concept of a benevolent co-existence among men—that it permits no concept of justice."
