You remember that? I thought I did that on the other forum a couple of years ago.

Pseudo was closest (and funnier) to the answer I had.

Two, but I don't know how they got in there!

08-01-2002, 11:38 AM

I don't get it. Really, I don't get it at all, neither do I get Pseudolus' answer.. I might be Canadian, but I'm not dumb!
