failed to commit...  What do you say?  What can you say?  That's right, you try
to think of one that you haven't committed, so you can say "Oh yeah?  Well, you
won't find me being proud."  But if you don't even know what they are, you

Jeanne,

The easiest way to remember the 7 Deadly Sins is to remember
the castaways of Gilligan's Island:

	Mr. Howe:  Greed
	Mrs. Howe: Anger
	Mary Anne: Envy
	Professor: Pride
	Skipper:   Gluttony
	Ginger:    Lust
	Gilligan:  Sloth

It's no accident, therefore, that Gilligan's Island was such a huge hit!!
