Maybe, it's kinda funny but not his best by any means.

I think the way you can identify the indiviual ripples on the nipple with your tongue.....well....modern technology just can't beat it!
That's why we're called expert witnesses. :wink:

Just found an interesting lil fact tht i didnt know...dnt kno if it is true or not?? :) ... i luv tht scene where Jim is doin laps before startin in his blue shorts and lil chuck taylors lol.. hee-hee soz i luv those shows.. i got em in pink lol!! :D

During filming of the scene in which the Cable Guy (Jim Carrey) plays basketball, it was discovered that Carrey could barely dribble a basketball, much less make a basket. Director Ben Stiller had Carrey mime the action without a ball and visual effects technicians added the basketball in postproduction.

I think that would be assuming. For one thing...we rarely hear about his darkside. Everyone's got one...it's the duality of being.

Additionally...too much concentration on Jim Carrey would close me off to other real guys I might meet. And I don't want to be that person with the big wandering eyes and messed up psyche because she's too distracted by fairy tales.

Well, the beauty of being a distant fan is you never have to worry about what they are really like. Sure he'll have a less enticing side, but we're not likely to see it first hand, so you just admire what you know/think you know.

There's a fine line between admiration and obsession. I think. Lol. A healthy crush will not ruin your relationships with 'real guys'. Honest. :wink:



Anywayyssss, what on earth is going on here??? :shock:

Yeah, I heard the same thing. Love your sig by the way. :wink: I love when that echoes in Steven's head after he tells the cops that he didn't receive any stolen goods. "Cream in his, cream in his, pants, pants, pants." :lol:
