There was only one catch, and that was Catch-22, which specified that a concern for one's safety in the face of dangers that were real and immediate was the process of a rational mind. Orr would be crazy to fly more missions and sane if he didn't, but if he was sane he had to fly them. If he flew them he was crazy and didn't have to; but if he didn't want to he was sane and had to.

You miss the point, Timothy. *I* used 'head' in my quote first. Ritten then chose that word as his carryover. It just seems silly to keep using the same word again and again, unless we want to change the rules yet again to see how many different quotes you can get using the same word. . . *eyes his Oxford Dictionary of Quotations* . . . which would basically turn this into another Word Association. . .

Which, by the way, is a rather moronic game. Whose idea was it? I mean, CapComs required you to have a sense of humour. QuoCom - I can't even remember the rules, so I dunno. Star Trek Hangman, OK. Even MindyCom required some intelligence (granted, not very much, but some). But Word Association? That's just reaction to stimuli - hell, amoebas do that. . .

Erm... I think you missed the point, Lee. He used the word "head" as an association. You told him he might have used "bang" instead. I was simply pointing out the humorous correlation between the words in question.

For the uninformed:

bang == "an act or instance of sexual intercourse; to have sexual intercourse [with]"
head == "fellatio, oral stimulation of the penis"
