Not too long... maybe 20 min ? :... ... but it's all in good fun, and some intersting facts are included.... i have my exams right now.. so any excessive work is done there...

hell yeah. i love doing stuff like that. i know so much random obscure crap i love to tell people it to confuse them because it comes out of nowhere. i love family guy cuz it does the same thing.

Riiight ? Just me that senses a great deal of sarcasm in that one ? If so, don't like my threads, stay away

no i'm serious. it's so cool you took the time to do that simply because you could.

Alright then... Thx
