About Me

One of my personal favourite discoveries in my lifetime was when it was agreed that the Tyrannosaurus Rex did not walk with its tail lumbering on the floor behind it, but instead with the tail poised in the air, a 'T' shape if you will. This I consider to be an excellent upgrade, and one that I would be proud of.I upgraded my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4
