Good Morning Class. Welcome to School!

[SCalGal]

I went to bad driving school once. They bore you so badly that you are very, very good because you never want to go back.

[xsmommy]

what a bunch of bad drivers are the coquettes here! for shame! my last brush with the law, i got off with a warning, it made my week!

[hobbes1]

tell her how far you unbuttoned your blouse...

[SCalGal]

I'm a good driver! I'm just a good driver too fast.

[xsmommy]

it was a tank top, no buttons

[hobbes1]

oh....I see....and I'm sure he did too...

[xsmommy]

you know this never occurred to me, but i did subsequently hear on the radio where cops were calling in to the morning rock station that it is the case. hey if it works, it works.

[hobbes1]

Strumpet. ; )

J/K!!!!!

[xsmommy]

i did not do a thing, i was not dressing for the dang cop!

[Robert A Cook PE]

Hmmmmmn.

Be careful now. Flubbing bodily parts in class (in publick view no less!) with hobbes could be distracting........

(Hobbes .... Hobbes! Nudges him ... Throws paper airplace to get his attention.....)

(Hey Hobbes! Did you ever find out why the coquettes always go around kicking their legs when they have them crossed in pubic? ....)

[Robert A Cook PE]

"i did not do a thing, i was not dressing for the dang cop!...

Methinks she doth protest to much ...

We have her word earlier (see ... I WAS listening!) that she was trying to outwit the boys by skipping her knickers ... and she just now said she did nothing for the cops ....

So ...... She didn't "dress up" for the cops to skip a ticket.

She was already undressed down under for them to try to avoid a ticket .....

[Gabz]

Hey - don't drag me into this thing. I've never been pulled over for speeding............ooops, yeah I was, once...17 years ago - but I got off because I was the anchor at the local radio station and was late getting the station put on the air. the cop knew me!!!

[maxwell]

Hey, not a problem. I've gathered from you recent posts you've been busy.

pics myself (a thousand pardons if I already posted this).....

[hobbes1]
