        Thank you. I don't mind the eagles, but that song bores me. -- nm - Beryllium Oct 19, 14:00 3
        
        It's world renowned as a party killer. -- nm - Reagen Oct 19, 14:05 1
        
        like the opposite of free bird? :) -- nm - Beryllium Oct 19, 14:06

    - I was originally going to just go with "His", but then I remembered Carly Fiorina (terrible HP CEO) -- nm - Beryllium Oct 19, 13:56
    - Don't be so judgy. -- nm - David Oct 19, 13:52 1
