She's out of control, so beautiful
(in stereo, lost in stereo)
And I've been waiting for so long but she'll never know
I'm losing hope 'cause she's so

if you're wondering what bing! is,
it's a new search engine that's complete and total BS.
it's just sad...
why would anyone w/ a Yahoo + Google Toolbar use bing!?
seriously, riddiculous.

into The Clique....

and i'm, just as guilty of making fun of him as the next guy, but...
we miss you michael.
bro, it's like...he was invincible.
and when his daughter spoke i was totally about to cry...

"Ever since I was born, Daddy has been the best father you could ever imagine.

And I just wanted to say that I love him...so much."
