Awwwh-No one listen to this Dwain W Higginbotham, he doesn't know what
he's talking about, as he probably didn't even graduate high school
and he's mentally retarded with brain damage, I saw some posting up
here on google which labels him an IDIOT, he's the nastiest man in the
state of Florida going on 90 years old, plastic surgery won't help him
he needs a new face and body and the only reson he's still around is
cause god don't want him either.
