      Aqua Dots Found to be deadly!

      WASHINGTON -

      Millions of Chinese-made toys have been pulled from shelves in North America and Australia after scientists found they contain a chemical that converts into a powerful date rape drug when ingested. Two children in the U.S. and three in Australia were hospitalized after swallowing the beads.

      Imagine that, a dangerous toy coming from China. I hear those Aqua Dot things are pretty cool though. If only people taught their kids not to eat them.

      Its a namespace used in c++ language, used for programming etc.

      Ignore Seis. He smells like my mother.
      You merely have to change your point of view slightly, and then that glass will sparkle when it reflects the light.

      Seis will you take a break from your C++ long enough to type a code-free reply? Just because my life revolves around cute kittens doesn't mean I have to put their asses at the end of each of my post.




      I still want your children though.
