In school we studied the split personalities of Eve Black and Eve White. One personality would harm the other, even tho they shared the same body. It is indeed fascinating what the human brain is capable of.

Okay, I have to get ready for werk now. Blarg, too tired.

If you end up in the bay area look me up. I came back from NYC a few years back will probably be here for a while.
