I was in Google looking for Ugly People for you, OPH. Dang, if I didn't end up on a porn site, and couldn't get away from it. You had to X off about 10 things to get out of there. It figures I was going to post to you and end up in a porn site.

Google's an awesome power...be careful how you use it.

ps: Look at "www.uglypeople.com"

The Osama photo was in the Google search.

You have to give your name, address, birthdate, fingerprints and pretty much everything else at that site in order to get in.

[Cyber Liberty]

Nobody ever "sniffs..." when I get to busy to play...

Grumble.

[Cyber Liberty]

What Osama photo?

[Slip18]

I went to the site you just sent me to, the www.uglypeople.com place. The same Ugly Person of the Year photo of Osama Bin Laden was there.

[Slip18]

"Nobody ever "sniffs..." when I get to busy to play..."

That's not true.

[Cyber Liberty]

...sniff...

Gonna get the heck outta here soon....

[Slip18]

I'll make you feel all better . . .

[Slip18]

Sheesh, OPH. There was a college girl site. The girls take their shirts and whatever else off. Then there was a big you-know-what site. I actually got embarrassed and wanted to get out of there. LOL. It's at Google under Ugly People. I think those two are about the eighth or ninth choice down the list.

[Argh]

Enough sniffling and ugly people. Lookit I found:
