MEN as of 09.17.04

Words of the Day, Week, Month, YEAR damnit!:
"What would I do if we were perfect
Where would I go for disappointment
Love without pain would leave me wondering why I stay...

I think of saving myself but with nothing to complain about in heaven
What would I do
I think of saving myself but I really wanna work it out down here in hell
With you"
-Van Hunt, Down Here in Hell (With You) also the [Song of the Day]
