secretly promised to never be like it said one does not leave a funeral in the same as one enters the mind it's consumed with death this one differs by speaking out because there are no other takers. to claim that mainstream media has met its maker. applied for many clubs over the years of. football isn't only about what happens on the pitch put a funnel school it's about the passion from the fans it's the age of the super money just kill you narrowness and spending two hundred twenty million fly a. book it's an experience like nothing else not to because i want to share what i think what i know about the beautiful game played great so what more chance for players. and leagues it's more neutral.

12:48 am
the very year. we're here to. see where you. know. stuff. before. you heard a. bad. back or that the miners house the girls are out of their uniforms and getting ready to break their fast. they told me that even though it gets boring here at least there's television air conditioning and
12:49 am
a shower they called it the luxury of the desert. i think it's ok. to listen to it so i think i may. post. it was just that it's a tough slog to step back suspicious much. trust our system. district expects you to. make it seem to. be fair i feel do you present it as if. you.

12:51 am

say give yourself a real. you know my view director's dole was very appropriate by reverse for your kookery it was one where you have to. it is that it is sad because the c.f. scene only seems to see that unity of a specific. school system assumes pursuit of s'syntel no. means for us is. to have such a terrible suffice as someone else as a nuisance when you. i
