The record industry is booming and I’m gonna be part of that! CD sales are through the roof! There’s so much money to be made. On a side note, one of my neighbors in my dorm just showed me this thing called Napster on his Compaq desktop computer where you can, like.. get songs for free? I don’t know what this is, but it sounds like a good way to get a virus on your PC! Anyway... the year 2000 is great and I’m sure if I do great I can return in the fall is 2001, which will be a great time to work in lower Manhattan!

We are Drake & Josh, meeting for the first time face-to-face on an episode of Nickelodeon's DOUBLE DARE 2000.

We've fallen in adorable puppy love at first sight, but naturally we're disguising our feelings as animosity and rivalry because we're 13 year-old American boys and we're performing comedy skits on a game-show for little kids. Also this is still only the year 2000 and gays-of-the-future aren't lauded on television at this point in time. We're hoping we don't cross paths again and so this awkwardness will go away forever. Little do we realise...
