Funny, because a few months ago in fb, the i f'ing live science page posted that post about using herpes to fight cancer and of course stupidity ensued within the comments section. As I was trolling, I noticed a woman who kept posting articles about herpes and such, so I sent her a message, stating I'll assume she has herpes, to be posting all that, for which she stated yes. She went on to explain some more and then sent me a video clip of a woman discussing herpes on the tyra banks show, which I'mI'm sure Dancer, you've seen. Then she tells me, that's her that was on the shoe, so we friended one another on fb. Crazy how small the world is right?
