Once upon a time, there lived an okay-looking prince named Hank. Sure, he wasn't as handsome as that charming upstart across the border, but he made up for it with a sense of humor.

Question of the Week #46
When did you last sing to yourself? to someone else? The answer to the first part of this question is always a few minutes ago. 'Cause I'm constantly singing to myself.
