Well, well, congrats to Alkhin, the first to mention Bilbo and the Hobbit. We should be ashamed.

How about the art of dressing the walls of rooms with candle drippings, sort of like imitating Dark Shadows.

The first time I ever got pulled over for speeding, I was 17, and I was listening to that song. The cop walked up and signaled me to roll down my window. i did, and blaring out at him came "And we've got the biggest balls of them all".

He was not impressed.
