    There once was a challenge from AT&T, That made my brow a bit sweat-y. To write about shopping,  Got my brain really hopping,   As I wrote on my Tilt 2 by HTC.

    The Forgotten

    As the sliding glass door closed, I knew that something was wrong. But I couldn't quite put my finger on it. I hoped the feeling of the unknown would pass but for some reason, it only helped to raise my panic level a bit more.
