Anyway: The Paradoxical Commandments
-------------------------------------------------
1. People are illogical, unreasonable, and self-centered
Love them anyway

2. If you do good, people will accuse you of selfish ulterior motives
Do good anyway

3. If you are successful, you will win false friends and true enemies
Succeed anyway

4. The good you do today will be forgotten tomorrow
Do good anyway

5. Honesty and frankness make you vulnerable
Be honest and frank anyway

6. The biggest men and women with the biggest ideas can be shot down by the smallest men and women with the smallest minds
Think big anyway

7. People favour underdogs but follow only top dogs
Fight for a few underdogs anyway

8. What you spend years building may be destroyed overnight
Build anyway

9. People really need help but may attack you if you do help them
Help people anyway

10. Give the world the best you have and you'll get kicked in the teeth
Give the world the best you have anyway

- Kent M. Keith

Paper; a material made of cellulose pulp derived mainly from wood or rags or certain grasses.

Although it seems archaic, paper is still on of the best methods of archiving information yet to be developed by mankind.

It's longevity and compatibilty will still ensure it's contents will remain intact long after your digital format has become useless and inoperable.

(something to think about)

Does it come with MD5 checksums? Can viruses come through this paper? Will it print without encoding issues? Is it compatible with older browsers? Does it come with spyware of any sort? If it isn't compatible with my OS, can I download source code and compile it myself? Should I pay for it? Or can I just download pirated paper from a file sharing network? Does giving links to pirated paper break forum rules? Most importantly, where I can I download or order this paper?

Paper? We don't need no stinkin' paper!
