I just misread your post somehow       and thought you were relating 3d to the written page!              No, I don't know how either!              >>> The actress for the character of Jody Rockwell has a distinctly Japanese       >>> accent to her English.

Guess I will just downlaod it then!              But seriously, the legality of the subject matter (rather then the       profitability of the title) is EXACTLY the point I make in another part       of this thread! Glad to see I not a raving lunatic to everyone!              Yet at least :o)              --       We promptly judged antique ivory buckles for the next prize.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
