So I used to HATE broaches (correct my spelling if it's wrong) Cuz old ladies would wear HUGE obnoxious ones, just ugly. And teachers would where those corny apple ones or "#1 teacher" pins. But no...

iwz Nov 29, 2004

iwz Nov 29, 2004

*gasp* Gay-za

sunshyne sunshyneOG 2004

ga'-za (long a) it is then. even if non-witnesses look at you funny bc every news report says ga-za (short a).
