"I am a child. I'll last a while. You can't conceive of the pleasure in my smile."- N. Young.....Sychophantic. Xenophobe. Didactic. Hegemonic. Iconoclastic. I'm a person who wonders what these words mean.
Don't tell me a crack-whore has never tried to get the guy out of the limo before...
Not all of us can be stage people and stars in life, the world can only be a better place when people are humble towards one-another. That was a good setup though. I wish you continued success in the future regardless.
Haha! I was the guy in Denver that you got pissed off at, at Comedy Works like 4 yrs ago! Good times! I was drinking a little way too much that night!! LOL!
