OWWW MY EARS!!!!!!

When I first watched the music video for Rebecca Black's song 'Friday' I honestly didn't wait around to hear the whole thing. Why? Because it was so bad that after about 40 seconds I just gave up and switched it off. I mean, the song had an annoying tune, the clip was pretty cheesy and Black's voice was without a shadow of a doubt the worse I've heard in a long time. She sounded like a dying cat and the only thing I could say at the time was 'Sheesh! I hope that's not her real voice!' Clearly I wasn't alone. She recieved death threats over the song, the song itself inspired parodies and imitations and she became a walking punch-line. As a result the clip was deleted off youtube.


She has since came back with a new song, 'My Moment'. I only listened to the first few seconds of the song and while I'm pretty sure autotune was used, her voice sounds much, much better. But as bad as 'Friday' was, I recently heard another song that had me running for the hills after a mere 10 seconds of listening to it. This song made 'Friday' sound like an unforgettable classic and the singer herself has celebrity credentials more meaningless than the Kardashian sisters and a notoriety that would make Charlie Sheen blush. She is an aspiring country singer and recently made news for all the wrong reasons, although to be fair she can't take all the credit for it. I am talking about Courtney Alexis Stodden.


We're all familiar with her by now. She's the 16-year old singer who, earlier this year, married 51-year old actor Doug Hutchison, best known for his roles in films like 'The Green Mile' and 'I am Sam', as well as TV roles in 'Lost' and '24'. Yes, you read that right. This teenage, barely legal girl, who is younger than Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez, who was not even born yet when Bill Clinton became US President, who was forbidden by law to drink at her own wedding, married a man who is four years OLDER than her father, who is older than Barrack Obama, and who was already alive when John F. Kennedy was assassinated. Really twisted stuff isn't it? Look, I'm open-minded enough to realise that, in another era, such acts weren't uncommon. But that was then, this is now, people and in this modern era, what these two did is not only considered disgusting and unlawful, but also downright criminal. Yes, the idea of older men marrying much, much younger women is not unheard of, but in those cases, both bride and groom were full-grown adults, not adult and child.


Ok, enough of that, let's get back on track here. This blog is all about Stodden (or should that be Mrs. Hutchison? *shudders*) and her oh-so-awful song that made me want to rip out my eyes and use them as earplugs. The song I heard, 'Don't Put It On Me' is available on youtube as a 'promotional clip' and the full song can be downloaded from iTunes. Most of you are probably wondering, 'Geez, Bernd. What the hell were you doing looking it up?' My answer: When I first heard that this little tart married some geriatric sicko and read that she was an aspiring singer, I was curious to hear how she sounded. I well and truly regret that decision. What I saw was a video clip involving some girl who looks older than her age suggests trying her hardest to imitate Paris Hilton and as for the song itself, it involved lame beats and bubblegum-pop music accompanied by a sing-songy rap voice that was so grating I was screaming 'UNCLE!!!!!!' after just a few seconds. Seriously, how the hell is this supposed to be a country song? Isn't country songs supposed to involve gentle guitars and soft beats accompanied by a laidback, friendly voice (male singers) or sweet, mellow ones (female singers)? Clearly, this song had none of that. If anything Stodden sounds like Ke$ha's younger, brattier, far more insufferable evil sister. No disrespect to Ke$ha intended.


So to Rebecca Black, Ke$ha, Rihanna, Justin Bieber and all the other singers I've heckled in my lifetime, I sincerely apologise to you all. Turns out there's someone out there with a voice worse than all of yours and a personal life and a reputation that would make even the most messed-up celeb shake their heads in disbelief. And Courtney, if you think being a singer is your true calling in life, well then all the best to you. Hope you fulfil that goal and maybe someday you might blossom into a real artist. But please realise that you and Doug are probably going to be hearing it loud and clear from haters and critics for the rest of your married lives, no matter how hard you both try to convey the image of a perfectly normal married couple and that there is a good chance you've both shot your reputations to pieces.

Weird, weird news

According to recent news a man was recently sentenced to three years in prison for fooling women into looking after him by pretending to be autistic.
The man, 21-year old Mark Richardson, behaved like a child, drank formula, sucked on a pacifier and threw tantrums as part of his act. Somehow, he managed to trick two women into 'babysitting' him, with duties including changing his diapers. Naturally, he was eventually arrested and charged with seven misdemeanour counts of outraging public decency and felony sexual battery, all of which he pleaded guilty to. He had apparently grabbed the breast of one sitter's daughter and in addition to his jail sentence the judge ordered him to register as a sex offender and pay $195 to one of his sitters, who was not paid in full for the so-called sessions.
During his trial, the judge told Richardson that he understood he had issues but that it is a poor excuse for his crime. Richardson for his part told the judge he regretted his actions and intended to get his life back on track.

I really don't know what to say about this. When I first read the article, the first thing that sprang to mind is that this guy's taken the whole single-and-desparate thing way too far. I mean, coming on strong to a woman armed with cheesy pick-up lines is one thing, but to show up to their front doors pretending to be some big kid who needs a carer? That's some seriously creepy behaviour right there. I'm no Barney Stinson, but I know that pulling off silly stunts like this is not going to get a girl to like you. Seriously, what happened to just simply approaching her, get a good conversation going and then asking her if she'd like to go out with you? Keep it simple, people! Realise that creepy and/or absurd behaviour doesn't do anything for your chances with her or for your personal image.

But, all that aside, I also thought that maybe he's just another tortured soul who just wanted attention. Sure, he went about it the wrong way but we all know how desparate some people can get when they crave attention. Whether they are 16-year old 'singers' who marry 51-year old sickos, teenagers who lie about being raped or morons who throw house parties that disrupt the peace and gain national attention, some people would do just about anything to get people to acknowledge them. Sadly for Mark Richardson, the only thing he got out of it is a criminal record and public vilification. What a way to go out, huh?

I guess we can all learn a little something from this piece of weird news, and that is no matter how much you want something or someone, JUST ACT NORMAL. By pulling off idiot stunts like this, not only will you be unsuccessful, but you risk damaging your reputation forever. Not a fair trade is it?

Sex, Lies and Idiocy

During this week, we've had the privilege (*cough! cough!* misfortune) of watching two separate sex scandals unfold before our eyes. One involved a teenage girl, starved for attention, recanting serious allegations she made about a well-known sports agent, allegations that left him disgraced and all but cost him his job. The other involved a US congressman who fell victim to his ego and his libido, causing seemingly irrevocable damage to his personal image and rendering him the butt of many jokes. Clearly, these two need help. And good ol' Bernd is here to show them the way - but not before reprimanding them for their actions first!

Our first case involves one Kim Duthie, a 17-year old schoolgirl who in February 2011 claimed to have been involved in a drug and alcohol-fuelled affair with Ricky Nixon, a married sports agent for St Kilda AFL player and captain Nick Riewoldt. She had video evidence to prove it and had also talked to the AFL Players' Association (AFLPA) about the matter. The AFLPA bought her story and in March 2011, Nixon's player manager's licence was revoked.

During this past week, Duthie suddenly resurfaced and claimed that she made up the whole thing. There was no affair with Nixon, she apparently was doped when she spoke with the AFLPA and that the video of Nixon in her hotel room just in his underwear was taken after he stumbled in blind drunk and/or high, having being victimised by drink-spiking.
Nixon threatened to take action against the AFLPA and at least two media outlets and denied that he pressured Duthie into revealing her lie.
But it gets worse. While appearing as a guest on the Ten Network's The 7pm Project, Duthie, believing that her interview was over, claimed on camera that her latest revelations were a lie. She went on Twitter straight afterwards and said she was just joking, but it was too late. Once again, she made fools of us all - and did her already-tarnished image no favours.

Tsk, tsk. What a mess we have here eh? It all began with another sex scandal that made headlines, disappeared for a while, and then suddenly comes right back at us because one key player in the matter claims that it was all a hoax, and then suddenly, said key player claims to have lied about lying. And you thought that this crap only happened on TV! But seriously, I wonder how it must feel like to be Kim Duthie right now. I mean, we all know how Nixon must feel. His reputation has been flushed down the toilet, his career is all but over and I'm pretty sure his family would be having a hard time coping with it. As for Duthie, geez. Talk about forever damaging your personal image even before you reached adulthood! Just to let you know, dear readers, she was involved in another sex scandal in late 2010 when she published nude photos of several St Kilda football players (including Nixon's golden boy Nick Riewoldt) and claimed that she fell pregnant, then miscarried, with a St Kilda player. Yeah, sounds like a really bad soap opera. Hell, they just might turn this one into a really bad telemovie or musical one day!



The only solution I can give to Ms. Duthie is this: Move on and stay out of trouble. It'll be a long time before she can get the dreaded 'S'-word-that-rhymes-with-'cut' off her forehead, not to mention the 'liar' tag, so really she cannot afford to put a foot wrong. So Kim, for your own good, just be a good girl now and stop looking for trouble - because you now know first hand that not only will you be hurting other people, you're hurting yourself. And no, posing for Zoo Weekly once you're of age to so will not do you any favours, nor will trying to use this as an opportunity to get an acting job. Also, STOP LYING!!!!!! It's really that simple. Ever heard of 'The Boy Who Cried Wolf'? Well, it's true what Aesop preached with this fable - liars aren't believed, even when they're telling the truth.



Let's go to our second nutcase of the week, one Anthony David Wiener, US Democratic Congressman, MARRIED MAN and Twitter idiot. Sometime late last month, Wiener sent a photo through Twitter to one of his followers, a 21-year old female college student, depicting his erect penis bulging in his grey boxers. He quickly removed the image from his account, but it was too late. The image was leaked to a conservative blogger, who proceeded to post the picture onto his website (these things do have a weird way of getting out, don't they?). Naturally, the media started to ask questions but the best Wiener could do was complain that someone must have hacked into his account and stolen the pic. Hell, he even went as far as to suggest he was being set up, that the picture was not him, that it was doctored etc.



Finally, in June 6 2011, Wiener admitted that he had indeed sexted the woman in question, that he had been having online affairs with several others on Twitter, Facebook, e-mail and over the phone and that he was ashamed of himself for what he did. He also mentioned that his wife was supporting him through this tough time. It was also revealed that prior to his marriage in 2010, he was something of a ladies' man, dating some of New York's finest women. And then he married a long-time aide to Hilary Clinton. Funny how things work out.



Naturally, Wiener became a walking punchline. It's bad enough that he was caught with his pants down (pun fully intended), but his surname just added fuel to the fire. Stand-up comedians and late-night talk show hosts mocked him and media outlets crucified him. To add insult to injury, the House Ethics Committee threatened to investigate his sins and fellow congressmen, Democratic and Republican, called for his sacking. Fortunately, according to public opinion, many believed that while he may have behaved like a first-class moron, it shouldn't be a reason for him to step down.



First things first, Mr. Wiener (snicker!). Have you thought of getting your name changed? Ok, just kidding! Well the good news is that the general public don't feel he needs to step down so that could be a sign that there are people out there who are willing to forgive and forget. As for his fellow congressmen and the House Ethics Committee, I guess only time will tell whether or not their protests will affect his position. In the meantime, I suggest that Mr. Wiener lay off the social networking (obviously) and find a way to not just mend his image, but also patch things up with his family. Obviously, a scandal like this would not only humiliate him, but his family as well. Heck, I could just imagine his wife giving him a slap across the face after his press conference the same way Julianna Marguiles' character in 'The Good Wife' did to her cheating husband. And as for his personal image, I guess Wiener should just get on with his life and his job, give the public the impression that he has moved on from this sleazy chapter in his life while debate over his resignation rages on (I'm assuming it still is), but he should prepare for the unexpected.



Well, there you have it folks. Just one week and two separate, yet somehow similar scandals. Sex, lies and idiocy. You couldn't make it up! To Kim Duthie and Anthony Wiener, I wish you both the very best. Just please remember to keep your behaviour in check - because you both are now branded.

Planking: Another trend taken to idiot levels

Early last Sunday, a young man aged in his early 20's plunged to his death from his apartment's balcony. When I first heard this news the first thought that came to mind was 'how sad. Gone too soon.' But when I read the details surrounding his death, pity turned into disbelief. As it turns out, the man had been out drinking with friends and upon returning to his apartment, he decided he wanted his friend to take a photo of him 'planking' on his balcony's railing. Of course, he lost his balance and... well you get the point.

And all because of this new internet craze that they call 'planking'. You know how it works: You lie on your stomach with your hands by your sides and you get your photo taken. You then post this picture on the internet so that other people can admire your work. People usually pose in dangerous, daring settings. On top of cars, on rooftops, on railings, on treetops and I even saw one released in the news of a planker perched on a basketball hoop! Clearly, the more daring your position, the more 'cool points' you get from fellow plankers. I guess this particular guy wanted to prove to his friends and some people on the internet just how hard he is by planking on that railing but instead, he got a one-way ticket to the afterlife.

Naturally, the police spoke out against this craze, stating that plankers risk hurting themselves and that anyone caught planking in dangerous locations could be charged. This was the case some time last week, when a knucklehead was fined for planking on top of a police car.
Predictably, plankers laughed off the police warnings, with the so-called Brisbane Planking Association stating that while accidents do happen, cops should lay off and let people have their fun. But they also warned other plankers that they need to be careful with dangerous locations and not to mix planking with drinking.

It never ceases to amaze me how people can turn the most mundane activity into a potentially dangerous activity that can have dire consequences for the participant. This trend is nothing more than a glorified 'anything you can do, I can do better' competition. Can you just imagine what would happen if this trend continues? People are going to start taking things too far. What's next? Plankers on top of a moving airplane? Plankers on top of Mt. Everest? Plankers in the Great Barrier Reef? Plankers riding on a shark or a crocodile? Hell, what if in the future people start running out of ideas on planet earth and start begging Sir Richard Branson for a trip to the moon just to plank?

Is getting praise from fellow plankers really worth getting seriously hurt or worse? Sure, you may look like a big hero to like-minded folks, but to the general public, you just look like a knucklehead with too much time on their hands. Really, if you guys want to throw caution into the wind just for the sake of some false praise from people on the 'net that you're probably never going to meet, well go right ahead. Just don't start crying to your mommies when you get hurt really bad just because you fell off a tree or off a moving vehicle.

Maybe I'm being too harsh. Not all plankers are idiots and planking, when it's done safely is ok. As it is with anything, as long as you don't overdo it, it's all good. But seriously, trying to pose on top of street lights, railings, moving vehicles, traffic lights and anywhere that could result in serious injuries is going too far. I do wonder, though. Had this trend taken off a couple of weeks earlier, wouldn't it have been funny to see a planker crash the Royal Wedding and attempt to plank on top of Prince William's head? Could have saved him from those unflattering photos!

People need to move on

When I read that singer Chris Brown threw a temper tantrum following an interview on Good Morning America sometime last week the first thought that sprang to mind was 'Oh no, here we go again!' As we all know, Brown assaulted then-girlfriend Rihanna in early 2009, causing her to miss the Grammys and tarnishing his reputation, seemingly for good. He managed to turn all that around, doing well in domestic violence classes and getting his career back on track, but then came that interview. During the interview, TV anchor Robin Roberts grilled him about his assault on Rihanna. Brown remained calm, stating that he had moved on but deep down he was fuming. He let it all out in his dressing room after the interview, when he ripped off his shirt, broke a window and confronted a producer, security and other staff members before storming out of the studio.

Ok, I don't condone the stuff he's done in the past, but people need to let him move on. He's already apologised for what he did, he served his punishment and just got his life back on track. Why bring that stuff up again!? God knows that I would get mad if people kept reminding me of the stupid things I did in the past over and over again. I think Brown made himself pretty clear on Twitter, stating that 'I am so over people bringing this past shit up! Yet we praise Charlie sheen and other celebs for their bullshit.' He took the message down minutes later and instead thanked his fans for their support. He does have a point. Sheen has done worse than Brown. Not only did he assault his wife, but he also put his kids' lives in danger, disrespected the creator, producers and co-stars of the TV show that made him millions and continues to behave like an idiot, humiliating himself and his family in the process, yet we don't crucify him for showing no remorse for his sins.

Maybe people are never going to forget the crime. After all, violence against women is a pretty serious offence. But provoking a guy with a known anger problem and causing him to snap is a pretty sick thing to do. Also, what about Rihanna? She's clearly put the incident behind her and bringing it up is not only a slap in the face for Brown, but also for the victim herself. Yes, it was a disgusting act on Brown's part and shame on him for doing it, but he's done his time and now it's time for us to let him move on. Just one piece of advice Chris, the Dennis Rodman look does not flatter you one bit. Blonde hair and tattoos, what the hell were you thinking!?

Saving Charlie

Some time last year, I wrote a blog about Mel Gibson and how his acts of idiocy could have potentially killed his career. Well, this year we have a new demented celeb making waves in the news headlines, Charlie Sheen. We all know the story: He started drinking, drugging and partying heavily, he beat up on his wife, he went on a rant about the man who owns the successful TV show he starred in, he was sacked from said TV show and since then he's become more known for his trash-talking than his acting career.


I guess he should be thankful that he could continue earning money from Two and a Half men should it continue running because it's pretty obvious that his acting career is in limbo right now and he doesn't seem to be doing anything about it. Maybe he just wants to live a life of leisure, debauchery and deviance but let's face it, people who live that kind of life don't last long in the media spotlight. When was the last time anyone really gave a damn about what Paris Hilton, Dennis Rodman and Katie Price were up to? Charlie could keep up the act for a while but eventually, people and the media will get bored with his antics and before he knows it, he will become just another has-been who had it all and pissed it all away. I doubt that a man like him, who has an ego the size of China would want that to happen.

Clearly, Charlie needs help. And good ol' Bernd is here to map out some other ways he could keep himself relevant.

1. Direct a Porn film

There are rumours circulating that Charlie might get involved in the porn business, and with the kind of company he keeps these days, who didn't see it coming? I guess he could direct some raunchy, all-female film and call it 'The Goddesses'. But Charlie, please treat your cast and crew with respect. You cannot afford to burn anymore bridges. And remember: violence against women is NOT cool.

2. Release a rap record

In the world of hip hop, feuding with other rappers seems to be a must and the more people you diss, the more fans you win, provided you do it right. With all the trash-talking that Charlie's doing, I'm actually surprised he hasn't released a rap song yet. I reckon that his ranting and dissing would sound a lot better if it was accompanied by beats and music and God knows he has a lot of people to write about. Call him an angry, psychopathic Taylor Swift, if you will. The way he thinks the song could very well be the hardest hitting diss track since Hit 'Em Up by 2pac. His 'rapper' alias could be 'MC Chuck' or even 'Chuck the drug'.

3. 'Charlie Sheen, the drug'

In one of his more memorable rants, Charlie mentioned that he was high on a drug called 'Charlie Sheen'. It certainly struck a chord. There's a Facebook page devoted to it. Perhaps Charlie could use it to his advantage. He could maybe lend his name and likeness to a line of clothes, accessories, skateboards, mugs, stationery etc devoted to the line or he could even endorse his own sex drug, 'The Charlie Sheen'. It could be a big threat to viagra - not only does it send your libido through the roof, but it also makes you energetic, brave and ballsy. Warning: Prolonged use can turn you into an argumentative, irrational, mean-spirited bully with an over-inflated sense of their self-worth.

4. Become a politician

Just because Charlie's had a history of substance abuse and run-ins with the law and call-girls doesn't mean he can't cut it as a politician. Who said they had to be saints in the first place? Adultery, alcoholism, corruption, general bad behaviour, many politicians have been busted for them and more. Besides, it's not like Charlie's completely illiterate when it comes to politics and philantrophy. In 2004, he was the spokesperson for Lee National Denim day and he contributes to AIDS charities. Heck, he believes that the 9/11 attacks was staged.

If Charlie does one day become a senator, governor or even President, it could be good for him since he'll actually have a real excuse for keeping his attitude in check. Sure, whenever a TV / movie star talks crap, they can turn to their publicists and make it all go away. But when a politician is caught behaving badly, it resonates for a long time. We all still remember what Bill Clinton did with Monica Lewinsky, and a lot of comedians out there still poke fun at George W. Bush. Could you imagine the media frenzy that would result in the news that the President had been caught with hookers in the Oval Office?

5. Turn his life into a musical

I had recommended this move to Mel Gibson, and now I'm also recommending it to Charlie. He's had a pretty interesting life of his own, growing up in a family of actors and becoming the most successful actor out of his siblings. He starred in many iconic films and TV shows, won many awards for his works and, during his time on Two and a Half Men was the highest paid actor on TV. Then he crashed, feuding with his wives and co-stars, partying, boozing, affairs with hookers and porn stars, general bad behaviour etc. Put that together and you have one hell of a musical. Everyone loves a celebrity train crash and right now, Charlie Sheen is the man of the hour. Who knows, maybe he and Chuck Lorre can help make it happen!

Well, that's about it. Hope is not really lost for Charlie Sheen. Sure, he'd probably look at this list and thumb his nose at it, but if he decides one day that living like a trash-talking, lazy, millionaire playboy is getting tired, there are options open for him to get back on his feet. In the meantime, enjoy your life, Charlie. For now, we'll be content sitting back and reading all about your oh-so-fabulous life, your 'goddesses' and your enemies.

Career Aspirations

Like many people, I had some rather unusual career choices as a kid. You know how it is, you see and hear things on TV, radio, books etc and you decide 'hey, that looks like fun! I wanna do that when I grow up!'

That train of thought wasn't lost on me. I had some pretty weird and wonderful ambitions when I was young. Some were pretty reasonable, others were a little strange while others were just ridiculous. Allow me to share some of them.



1. Police Officer



I was a fan of shoot-em-up games when I was young, so much so that it's a miracle I didn't grow up to be a serial killer. Anyway, I thought being a cop was a fun, rewarding career. You save people's lives, you put bad guys behind bars, you get to wear a cool uniform, you carry a gun, you get to shoot bad guys once in a while, it was something I thought I wanted to do....until my friend at school put that ambition to rest when he told me 'you do realise that people die on the job right?'



2. Fire fighter



Ok, this one really only sprang to mind because when I was young, one of my favourite toys was a miniature fire truck. Otherwise, it didn't develop into a serious career choice.



3. Palaeontologist



I was a real nerd when I was young and like most of them, I was fascinated by dinosaurs as a kid. Naturally, I thought that it would be great if I could make a living digging their bones up, studying them and naming them. Unfortunately, that ambition faded too, mainly because I discovered that I sucked in science and so the Berndtoacrispasaurus remains non-existent.



4. Artist



I can't draw to save my life, but as a kid, I was good at it. As far as child-level drawings went I was quite good, and it was a real boost for my then-limited ego whenever some of my classmates asked for my assistance when it came to drawing. 'You should be an artist, dude!' they'd say in admiration. Well, I'll bet those same folks wouldn't be telling me that now. I'd probably be the only artist dumb enough to try passing off stick figures on a blank canvas as a classic.



5. Superhero



Admit it, some of you people out there once aspired to be a superhero at one stage of your lives! I was a huge fan of cartoons as a kid, with the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Batman and Superman among my favourite superheroes. But I think it was Superman that I wanted to be like the most. I mean, he can fly, he can leap tall buildings in a single bound, he's the man of steel, he's good-looking, has a girlfriend....all that despite not knowing that underwear goes inside the pants. Put it this way; my parents used to tell me that Superheroes were strong because they ate vegetables every day. As a result, I never had an issue with them!



6. Actor



Another career choice that I'm sure everyone has contemplated one way or another. For me, I just figured that since I had a knack for impersonating people and enjoyed entertaining my classmates by trying to be a class clown (though I think they were laughing at me rather than with me) I might as well get paid for it. Let's face it; many actors out there aren't even good at what they do so I thought 'hmm...how hard can it be?' Well, now I know that it's pretty damn hard. For one thing, I'm a pretty private person so I'd probably spend most of my career locked up behind bars for assaulting paparazzi. I'd probably spend my free time getting drunk or stoned 24/7 while partying with porn stars. That or I'd show up on sets, not bother to learn my lines and get bored and piss my career away. How do Alec Baldwin, Charlie Sheen and Lindsay Lohan sleep at night!?



7. Professional Video Game player.



Whenever I look back on this career choice I get pissed off. I was a serious gamer when I was young, so much so that it forever ruined my eyesight (I think) and contributed greatly to my weight gain as a child. My folks even dryly told me one time that 'if video gaming was a career, you'd be a millionaire'. This was the 90's, people and as far as I knew, it wasn't something you can make a living out of at the time.

Well, I gave up the games some 6 or 7 years ago and now I know that you CAN make a living as a pro video game player. WHERE THE HELL WAS THIS WHEN I WAS A KID HUH!!!???? All the time that people made fun of me for not being an athlete I could've put them in their place by earning millions as a pro gamer. Too late to start now, though. I haven't played in a long time and have lost touch with the gaming world. Hell, I don't even know the latest console that everyone is flogging these days. Just goes to show that sometimes you shouldn't give up on your ambitions!



Well, there you have it. As you can see, I had some pretty big dreams as a kid. Kinda funny how young minds work eh? Oh well, been nice sharing with you all, I'm out for now.
