Hollywood seems to know.:biggrin:




Why do Liberals insist and demand that achievers pay the way for nonachievers who are to lazy to succeed, or are just failures by their own choice?

Criminals prefer unarmed victims, dictators prefer unarmed subjects.

Why do ignorant people continue their blabbering when it only proves to others how stupid they are.

The most important thing to remember about today is that if you go to a Krispy Kreme and talk like a pirate, you get a free donut. Dress like one and you get a dozen free. Who knew pirates like donuts?
