yes. exactly. that's why i have a hard time seeing it. i am not doubting that k.h. listens to 50 cent, its just that i would expect him to say something else in terms of what he actually likes. but whatever, to each his own, i suppose he has more fun bumping 50 cent in the ride as opposed to some funky hip hop like the roots or something. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
