okay the website was created on march 3 2008 (and the website is registered in canada to a shiela heti)...is this segment 'live or is it memorex'.
We've been living a nightmare since Nov. 2000. I'm dreaming we can do better in 2008. (McCain would merely be a more entertaining continuation of the nightmare.) Thankfully, I haven't had any dreams about any recent candidates; reality is bad enough!
I have dreams about Barock all the time. But Michelle always walks in when it gets good! Got Damn Her!
I have had numerous dreams about george washington. including going back in time and him falling in love with me. that's NOT an april fools.
