If I recall correctly, there were only 100, and then 101 after Gargamel created Smurfette.

</pedant>

Originally yes. Now there are tons of them. The only openly gay ones were Vanity and Hefty.

It's getting close to beach time and I'm nowhere near ready for it. So, I've got one of those celebrity workout\diet books and I'm gonna see how this works. Says it's a six week plan, so I figure 'why the hell not?' If anything, at least I have a book full of nifty pictures of Mario Lopez in it.  :w:

I'm not sure what Mario Lopez does, but you could try the Zack Morris workout - it consists of carrying around this phone:

eh!
I haven't been on here in awhile....
so my grandma told me that they are coming out with another X-Files movie this summer. I'll definitely go see it, but I hope it'll be worth it. I know all the episodes after like 1998 or 1999 are just not very good, so I don't know about a new movie coming out. plus in my oppinion the clunky cell phones just add on to the charm of the whole show. but maybe I'm the only one who thinks so?
I donno if anyone else here watches that show or not...

In kindergarten they said I was really good with the blocks, and nobody could touch me when it came to nap time.

But, like all shooting stars, I too burned out, and by the time I turned the tender age of 8 I was an alcoholic, pack-a-day smoking, D-average student, just one more term evaluation from washing out of MIT.

My boyfriends at the time broke it off, not because they found out about the fact that I was seeing both of them at the same time, or because I didn't even know what pubes were let alone have them, but because I told them that they didn't mean a drat to me, much like everything else in the world.

Yeah, I had seen it and heard it all, and the noise was no good. I had flown so high I touched the sky and saw it was already tainted in every direction.

Then I found Jesus, amen.

I thought I was being clever by electing to have liability only insurance. Went great for about a year, then I bumped into somebody. All that money I 'saved' just got spent fixing my truck.  :| So, don't ever choose liability only. Ever. Pay the extra and do full coverage and save yourself a lot of grief later on.

Uh, that's why they call it insurance. It's there in case you happen to need it. :-P

What the fuck is up with Cavelier Telephone?  I spent alot of time on hold with them to tell them I have a hanging phone wire in my backyard last week.  Now the phone rings and it's them so I answer it and it's a fucking recording telling me to call them.  If you want to talk to me...have a fucking person call me!!

So after the fourth fucking time, I had to call them.  I was immediately put on hold and then the guy comes on and asks how he can help me.  YOU called ME!  Now they're asking me the same questions I answered the first time I called.

Stupid jerks.  I bet that guy gets alot of cranky people calling him up and he doesn't know why.

A random thought on high school graduation: I will never understand how thirteen years of education somehow culminates in three hours of quiet time interspersed with several rounds of "Follow the Leader." I feel like such and adult.
