Message from Odestiny Note: The first image in "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" is meant to be a sarcastic response to a stupid statement someone made on the web, concerning the deaths of children in the middle east. It certainly does NOT reflect my own feelings, except to say how ignorant people can be.Knowledge is the key to everything.Love God, love your neighbor. That covers it all.
