just kidding... TOTALLY PROUD!

Well, about this at least. Let's see where our policy goes... there are still quite a few things that I am not proud of.

"When I was young
I was so gay and mean,
And I drank and chased the girls
Just like young St. Augustine.
Saint Augustine,
He got to be a saint.
So, if I get to be one, also,
Please. Mama, don't you faint."
