    Ok I am weird. I noticed the periods at the top left and bottom left part-- Are those ticket holes perhaps? I know, that's another stretch...Told you I am weird :p. Don't mind me.

    When I read this, the old Monkee song: The last train to Clarksville ran thru my mind, (I think that was its title). I hope we all get some decent tickets, Ruben!!! This is cool. And i'm glad you liked my monoku. Please put up MORE new stuff!!!(do you have anything about the new changes here that are bothering you?)
