"Before you die Lonestar, there is something you should know about us.  I was your father's brother's nephew's former roommate."

                    "Well, what does that make us?"

"Absolutely nothing, which is what you are about to become."






And to answer the OP's question, I would have to say no I am not.
"Then out spake brave Horatius, the Captain of the gate:
 To every man upon this earth, death cometh soon or late.
 And how can man die better, than facing fearful odds.
 For the ashes of his fathers and the temples of his Gods."

You can subtract 5 from 25 as many times as you want. Here:
25 - 5 = 20

                                    25 - 5 = 20
             25 - 5 = 20                                   25 - 5 = 20
   25 - 5 = 20                    25 - 5 = 20

See? I can subtract 5 from 25 as many times as I want, because I mostly do what I want!

once you subtract 5 from 25 - you are left with 20... so you can no longer subtract 5 from 25..... 
is it really that hard to grasp?

See, you just subtracted 5 from 25, even though it has been done before in this thread. My point has been proven.
