Hmm. I noticed you wrote 'thumb up.' I guess that means this was halfway good. Tha Yo.

That's a good way to compare. We better let Tom know his old ways can only remain timeless by Tik-Tok, Tik-Tok

These kids have their head in the clouds..as if! I was in a Minnesota consignment shop with my 10 year old grandson. His eyes on his game whilst all sorts of craziness was going on around him. I had him look and his eyes popped out of his head. I said you might want to have a look around from time to time. LOL
