Life can be sweet at times and life can be bitter; At times you sob a bit, other times you titter. Many tried to define life with sarcasm and wit; Many missed the point and a few scored a hit. I give life's definition simply and with ease, It's: "Sexually Transmitted Fatal Disease." � P. J. Oszmann (2003)
