  1. one thing I find funny is that people search for money and numbers on the internet. And they are here every day begging to be recognized, for money, fame or praise. After they make money they disappear and appear when they want without the slightest regard for the people who put them where they are. For me this is at least dishonest. No matter who your vote is!
