I was always told that you needed a degree in life to become someone. Actually, it seems it is the opposite sometimes.Timothyhttp://aweddingbyphoto.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-875001767678246171.post-9584410406414193752010-06-06T01:59:24.000-07:002010-06-06T01:59:24.000-07:00Those guys are flukes.
