You've Got Mail!!!!! :D

No, know what you mean!

"It's clouds illusions I recall, I really don't know clouds at all. What is she saying? Is she a pilot?"

I nearly said that in there but I talk about that movie too much :P

I know that song! I always found that song wonderfully joyful and uplifting, for 2 reasons. One, because by not knowing, it means there's still so much to learn. Secondly, because she doesn't discard the original 'illusions' just because she's learned new things. It's about discovering that the bad and the good don't necessarily exclude nor outweigh each other, but each must be taken for its own merits. That's how I always took it, anyway.

I think as a young child of that age I used to always sit in the trolley and eat rainbow ice cream.

Which probably explains my fatarseness. You were getting more exercise and eating less crap.

I'm sure, at four years old, it doesn't really matter what you eat. I know for sure my mum gave me stuff to eat that was of the same nutritonal value as rainbow icecream. She was opposed to the food colouring in it I think.
