Random thoughts:I respectfully request that Jennie stop trying to foist Smudge on the innocent CK population.

To parrot Courtney the reason I love my church and how they represent the Divine to me is that at Sundays service, during offering, they handed out $20 bills to everyone in the congregation to use to bless the world.
