I keep trying the same thing, but the damn Metacity keeps restarting
before Sawfish has a chance to run...it's getting more and more annoying
that this issue can't just be resolved with an easy fix. I'm almost to
the point of chucking Gnome2 in the bin and going back to 1.4+ because
at least I have control over the environment - and don't have so many
niggling problems - ASIDE from performance issues...

Blackout, heatwave, .44 caliber homicide,
The bums drop dead and the dogs go mad in packs on the West Side,
A young girl standing on a ledge, looks like another suicide,
She wants to hit those bricks,
	'cause the news at six got to stick to a deadline,
While the millionaires hide in Beekman place,
The bag ladies throw their bones in my face,
I get attacked by a kid with stereo sound,
I don't want to hear it but he won't turn it down...
