Granny says Justin Timberlake's penis ... (Dec 07 2003 16:57 GMT) - Granny says Justin Timberlake's penis is OK Britney Spears has been interpreted to have hinted that ex-lover Justin Timberlake has a small penis. During an MTV interview, Spears said she was "just a little bitter" at the breakup with Timberlake, and had stressed the word "a little" while using her thumb and finger to indicate that something was very short. Now granny comes to Justin Timberlake's aid, sorta. Sadie Bomar says Spears wasn't being truthful when she hinted on TV last week Timberlake isn't well endowed. His 70-year-old grandmother said: |

Temporarily Wacked (Dec 07 2003 16:56 GMT) - I bet most of you can think of one time that you've decided to make changes to a file/script in the hopes of making things easier, but ended up banging your head on the keyboard instead. That's me right now! I decided I was plenty tired of making edits to this MT through the web interface. After looking around at MT's forum, I decided that I'd link all my templates to outside files (outside of MT's directory). This way I'd be able to edit the files in my text editor, instead of the teensy window in MT's template editing area, and this would also save me from having to wait for each template to load. |
