...met at the rehab centre and went hang-gliding with dampened spirits, and simultaneously they screamed: "Where did that camel come from?", which became the basis of a new religion. The moral of the story is...

Love never dies.

But before I start ranting, many wishes to filker0 for a very happy birthday!
