Isn't Tupac a stage between having a pot gut and developing a 6pack? :?

my brother is 15 and obsessed with tupac at the moment.
i have watched that many documentries and rubbish. he always chooses to come into the room im in to watch them!

tupac is actually in the guinness book of world records as the highest-selling rap artist apparently. i coudlnt name one of his songs tho.

I'll never understand people who go to work and expect to be unconditionally loved and supported and paid but not have to do any friggin work unless they feel like it:?

He's got a few good songs. My fave was "Hit 'Em Up". There's a bit of the whole Biggie/Tupac story in that song.

Now I know when people talk about twins, there are instances where they aren't identical, but.... But a quote I heard at the VFL today from one of the roosters fans "michael has a twin brother who looks exactly the same".

I laughed.

Ok this isn't something that happened today but...

Have you ever come to a four way roundabout (as in two roads crossing with a roundabout in the middle) and you've arrived at it at the same time as three other cars, so there's a car at each entrance to the roundabout and everyone is looking to the right and waiting for that person to go and you end up sitting there like a bunch of idiots until someone pulls their finger out and just goes?? Obviously this is bound to happen occasionally. It's happened to me once, it's the weirdest thing. Has anyone else experienced this?

Kinda reminds me of riding the little vespa in Europe. Coped fairly well with right hand side of the road thing at first until I hit a roundabout and just got totally thrown off :?. lol, drivers are a little less forgiving over there, good thing I couldn't understand them :lol:

..what I found odd today was a small news clip that said; gas and electricity set to "soar" but petrol price will not go "up". So, the government suddenly control the price of petrol ?

Ok, so it wasn't today, it was on Sunday..... I was watching the Hawks game on telly with my Dad & Buddy Franklin just kicked a goal. My Dad is a Pies supporter but doesn't mind Buddy as he thinks he's a good player. He turned to me and says "He is the type of guy who I would let ring you three times a day... As long as he was playing for the Pies..." :shock: I just stared at him..... I don't think I've heard anything that weird in my life. I don't think I would WANT Franklin to call me at all!!!! Plus, we don't even know Franklin or anything like that....
Just a weird moment from my Daddy..... :? :P :D
