                                          No... when the hippie movement and the acid colors where overall seen profile pic? ;P ;P :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

                                          M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.
