The flaying of my buzz?????
Photobucket has a new feature that shows what websites have been viewing the pics in your account. I went to one of the websites and and all it has is this one weird old medieval painting of a guy named Buzz (per his toe tag) laying on a table getting flayed alive. It looks like a real painting. The flaying is overseen by the king and his court.

Has anybody ever seen this painting before? See it for yourself if you don't mind such things; it's not as gory as it sounds. http://bennysizzler.com/

2. He's very calm about it.
I'd probably be more upset, but that's just me.
