Is it just me or are europeans weird.

smuggeridge @smuggeridge (2148) 12 May 07

Irishangel The eurovision is a bit of a characture of europe, it picks the worst bits of each country, multiplies they my 100 and tries to pass it off as culture! It's not europeans that are wierd, it's the eurovision!

I have no control over my 5 year old son. He does not listen to me and does the complete opposite of what I ask of him. Sometimes when he wants to follow me, he just says okay but he shouts and adds silly mom or silly girl and it...
