take life
for granted, and
always remember to laugh.
Constantly.

yep, that's the spirit Miss.

Have you seen these before. I must confess I had never heard of them until a few days ago.

with my shovel
digging up the future
to contradict the logical

Mr A  good job man!

Cinny good stuff!

Shinsoku nice one!

I think i'll get someone who knows what they're talking about to judge this one.
I am already finding it hard to see any one better than the other.
