Who are you calling a toady? 😉 Just kidding–I know you are still recovering. Should you be doing that kind of labor yet?

There’s a movie called **The Opposite of Sex**.

Oh, I don’t know. Two Windows installs doesn’t sound too taxing.

2K or XP?

😃

All kidding aside, don’t overdo it **NCB**. I don’t want to see another post by **viva** talking about how you put yourself in the hospital.

You pushed it once, but on three different control jobbies–like on the transporter. 😉

Or maybe you’re just seeking attention. 😃  
But then, aren’t we all?

That’s 99% of the time.

When I grow up, I’m gonna be the lead singer in a nu-metal band.

Aw, that was so sweet. Thanks! 🙂

Glad to hear the opposite sex isn’t bumming you out anymore, **Aes**! Me, I’m still all befuddled, but I’ll get over it. Maybe. Or else join a convent. Whichever.

\< **shudder** \>

That was truly mind-boggling in its badness. Staggerlingly, achingly, ear-bleedingly bad.

However, that’s the first time I’ve ever been able to understand all of the lyrics to that song without having to look them up. I like Elton John, but man does he mumble.
