I am considering fucking off around Europe on the very cheap for a couple of weeks.<br \/>\n&#8211; I am wondering how I would pay for fucking off around Europe for a couple of weeks.<br \/>\n&#8211; I really think I would like to leave the country by the end of this month.

I heard Johnny Cash&#8217;s <i>American IV: The Man Comes Around<\/i> on an iTunes network&#8230;I torrented the full thing for at home&#8230;and guess what, yes I bought the fucking CD.
