This just gave me the hardest laugh I've had in a long time. Totally emailing this link to my sister. We were such Justin groupies growing up!

I just discovered you being computer illiterate up until 4 months ago. I had to comment because I've drooled over Justin Hayward for most of my 42 years. I can't tell you how many times I read this! I laughed my ass off(well, if that were only possible)./I'm not surprised to see that he's fooled around. What man in his position wouldn't? Have fun with him,yes. Marry him, no!
