grue 1 #2 June 23, 2007 Can't say I blame the kid. I tend to get pretty damned cranky when I'm trying to sleep and something is keeping me up, too. I'd like to think I wouldn't do anything quite that extreme, but hey… when you're tired, you're tired.cavete terrae. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
