    I know it's random but Dane Cook posted this on his facebook.

    I was absolutely moved by these pictures I showed a ton of people this already.

    I dunno why but this kinda stuff completely fascinates me.

    Not random at all. Dane Cook follows my every move.

    :lol:

    Who is Dane Cook anyway.

    EDIT: NM, ok I know who he is.

    This stuff is great. Even though my family was in a different country then, I was born here. This is my history (although I love my parent's history too, my parents had as rough or rougher lives as well). these people truly had it rough.
