1159: Ottaviano de Montecello elected as anti-Pope. i don't know what it means but it sounds badass The Pope vs. The Anti-Pope. There can be only one. Have a ladder match with both of their goofy hats hanging above the ring, like when HBK and Razor had the two IC belts. Guest enforcer: D'Angelo Dinero. Id watch it |

A friend I went to high school with always had something terrible happen on or around her birthday. The Oklahoma City bombing. The Waco Raid. And Columbine was the day after.
On a lighter note, I have a friend, who people think we look alike. People also say he looks like Dane Cook. People also say I look like Adam Levine.
So four people, who everybody says look like each other...all have the same birthday. What are the odds?
