I'm going for a full new package this year (I think)..... decisions, decisions....
Me, too. I just gotta get the nerve to toss $1k or so at once.
Carbon Surfs
Fuckin' neocons! If Bush wins it'll be because he cheated! He was wired in the debates! There's a conspiracy! I feel violated! The goverment is coming to get us! Bush is a dictator! Where's my tinfoil helmet and soma???

Nice Prana beanie.
