Maybe it's a personal thing though, but I kind of feel that the mediocre, day-to-day frustrations of the first page were enough of a set up.Sookrajhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08438949751182051664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7712958.post-1130135580962618422005-10-24T06:33:00.000+00:002005-10-24T06:33:00.000+00:00"Just another day for you, you 'n me in paradise"!..."Just another day for you, you 'n me in paradise"!
