spooky is as spooky does lol... strange set of circumstances, i was suggested to check out a clever little song, but i can't find it on the kazaa... i check back a few minutes later because sometimes it's weird like that, and poof it's there... i download and check on it about halfway through, then realize that out of like 500 billion people on the kazaa, the person i'm lifting it from... is the person that suggested it lol... we exchange some messages in that program, which reveal that some people are diabolically similar in certain respects. scary in a way... some people frighten me without doing a thing.
hmmm... i was thinking belly button, but "not that one you perv" - why, wherever were YOU thinking LOL
