    lol! I also wondered what the P stands for!

    I find the Sopranoes terribly difficult to watch!!! The storyline hardly ever gets to me before i fall asleep. Perhaps its the KTN timing.

    anonymous: Never been to Sychelles, but plan t go there when I win the. As for P…

    Kibet: Watch Season 1 of Sopranos on DVD – it’s a perfect arc. Since then (season 2,3,4 and soon 5) they have mostly being marking time and minting money.
