I think I was the only DL fan in my school as well (I have now graduated).
I tried to get my friends to know who he was, and even Jean-Claude Van Damme. Well now at least some of them can say that they have HEARD of the man.
I remember I used to check out the gallery when I in class and the girls would always complement how "fine" and "sexy" DL was. It was hilarious.
I think my mom likes him now too.
