scqueen~Thanks, but I'm the lucky one. It's my own dumb luck that led me to her. :-)<BR>
<BR>
Rennie~I really didn't grow up in a traditional Filippino family. My mother is black and my father is Filippino, so, our Christmas parties were a little weird. But I guess you can say I got the best from both cultures, I love rice but pass the biscuits please. lol.<BR>
<BR>
Star of David~You're welcome and thanks for your comment on "My Own".<BR>
<BR>
Take care<BR>

Crying shame~ thank you for your compliments! I'd have to say that falling in love with my best friend more than anything else.  We recently broke up from and on-again-off-again relationship and we're trying to salvage our friendship as best we can.  It's tough, but not impossible. Thanks again!<BR>
<BR>
Jon~ great to see new things from you!!! as always, your #1 fan!<BR>

Um...Hi. I read "my baby" my advice is move on. I dont know this dude..but if hes dating another girl and saying he loves you Im pretty sure hes leading you on. In my opinion thats not love. I could always be wrong.<BR>

I LOVE Inflatable Sushi!(Indefensable Sushi ain't too bad, either). Why is everyone Sushi hating? So, maybe you don't agree with EVERYTHING posted, but who cares? To each his own, I say. Much love, Sushi, baby.

Knock it off with the offtopic links. The only reason I haven't been removing posts lately is not having had the time.

Some of my favorite parts from 'Blow', <BR>
<BR>
"Now we ridin' on a train to Armageddeon, lookin' at flames lickin'; incineratin' tongue, Conductor got the mark of your beast on her chest from where you tore it, far-flung."<BR>
<BR>
"...fist of indignance tore the bars of conscience long ago...Sneer, growling soul; proud, gaping hole; powder's packed where love once reigned...Take a lil' piece of their hate, incinerate; carefully open hand, on my command, blow."<BR>
<BR>
DAMN! Soooooooooooo goooooood!
