3. Not really.
I have about 5 more minutes before I get shut down. Ugh. Work is greeaat. Just insanely busy and draining. I feel like I haven't talked to people (besides coworkers in FOREVER). I'm such a bad friend. *sigh*

Anyway, just popping in for a brief second to say hello. :loveya: Sorry I've been lacking in the friend duties. lol

5. JAMIE BELL!! His American accent is getting really creepy.
:loveya:
I swear I've not seen the boy with his natural way of speech since I saw Billy Elliott.


Great message, obviously, great video, etc.

8. great song and video
Problem is the song is about Sep 11th and Billy Joe losing his dad in the same month...not what the video shows but oh well.

The video is a good example of how messed up this country has become in many ways. I wouldn't call it an anti-war video just a view at america at this moment in time more than anything.

And that's the scary part is how messed up we've become.
