And now, with my heart ripped to shreds and my faith in fellow man cast asunder, I must slope off into the darkest recesses of my tortured soul in a vain attempt to rebuild my shattered excuse for a life.

Thanks for nothing, OP.

I'm a Cardiff boy originally although now living in Houston, Texas which is considered a stones throw from Grapevine!!
