interesting thread... did you know there is all kinds of freaky stuff
going on in the yahoo chat rooms and in the yahoo clubs. most of the
clubs seem to be private and the ones that i was invited to had lots of
freaky things.
so now yahoo is making a bit of money off it now. but this is a bit odd,
like wal-mart opening a sex shop next to the electronics section.
