Unfortunately, HP has not yet released an OS X driver for my
PSC 750xi printer/scanner/copier. We're forced to use OS 9.x to

The Female of the Species is a poem I received via email. Author unknown. Amen.

But the she-bear thus accosted rends the peasant tooth and nail.
For the female of the species is more deadly than the male.
