| <NOTE: pressing ALT & F4 together closes open windows on the computer... |
| <NOTE: using %n inserts the sn of the person READING the message/profile, no one else will see that sn (they would see their own sn) |
| FOOLISH: better to stay silent and be thought a fool, than speak out and remove all doubt! |
| FUNERALS: I used to hate going to weddings... Seemed like all my aunts and grandmotherly types would come up to me, poke me in the ribs, and cackle "You're next!"... They laid off that shit when i started doing the same thing to them at funerals... |
| INSPIRING: Sometimes it's holding on that makes you stronger... Sometimes it's letting go... Sometimes it's never giving up that adds to your character... Sometimes it's giving in Sometimes you have to have a grip on life... Sometimes it's forced out of your hands... so...... Dance like no one is watching, Sing like no one is listening, Love like you've never been hurt, and Live like each day is your last |
| TIME: time is the best teacher... unfortunately, it kills all it's students... |
| WAITING: I'll be back in a second... If not, wait longer... |
| <Note>: once downloaded for the 15 day trial, it cannot be downloaded again... so make use of it while you can |
