To do this to Prince William,Jane would've had to dig a small trench so that she would be able to curtsey to a proper level. Seeing that she left her backhoe in her car, she decided not to curtsey. Supposedly Prince William felt that this was poor planning on her part and ordered her immediately shot. As of present, her identical twin is currently living Jane's life. Jane was, of course, immediately shot. -- Another wunnerful letter from the semi-intelligent rotting brain of: Paul Kirsch St. Joseph's University Philadelphia, Pa { astrovax | allegra | bpa | burdvax } !sjuvax!kirsch I'm outside right now...do you know where your children are ?
