What the f*** is the point in wasting all the fuel?? <BR/>and by the way: get yourself a health care system! ;-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9076013.post-55589086048599161502008-06-30T20:06:00.000-07:002008-06-30T20:06:00.000-07:00Read the fucking story, asshole.Read the fucking story, asshole.Freewaybloggerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07290994906698327870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9076013.post-19076902807947536722008-06-30T13:21:00.000-07:002008-06-30T13:21:00.000-07:00Why will there be no North Pole and do you believe...Why will there be no North Pole and do you believe it?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9076013.post-45430595959801382042008-06-26T10:03:00.000-07:002008-06-26T10:03:00.000-07:00To let drivers know that telling kids there's no n...To let drivers know that telling kids there's no north pole is probably going to be more difficult than telling them there's no Santa Claus.Freewaybloggerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07290994906698327870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9076013.post-86739338242515447042008-06-25T22:30:00.000-07:002008-06-25T22:30:00.000-07:00What's the point of the signs then?What's the point of the signs then?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9076013.post-18971976754007777042008-06-25T17:18:00.000-07:002008-06-25T17:18:00.000-07:00What the F_ck are you talking about?
