    hope youre not disappointed then when they get their arses whooped. :p:D

    wheelchair basketballers are maniacs from what ive seen.

    i saw a ping pong player with only one arm in the regular competition. she played left handed. dont know if she was left handed naturally, but i guess she is now. now thats one sport where less limbs doesnt mean less advantage. :)
    hear my name
    take a good look
    this could be the day
    hold my hand
    lie beside me
    i just need to say
