The Priest really getting enthusiastic about the results when he hears a rustling in the bushes. As he peeks over the top, he sees a couple of natives in the midst of heavy sexual activity.

The chief looks at the couple briefly, pulls out his blowgun and kills them.
The Priest goes ballistic and yells at the chief that he has spent years teaching the tribe how to be civilized and kind to each other, so how could he kill these people in cold blood that way?
The chief replied, "My bike."

Happy hour Martini...How cool! Thanks! :)
How exciting! You'll have a great time.
We justmoved into another apartment. It is smaller than the last one, so we have to get rid of stuff. I am worn out, taking a break in the business center of the new complex to go online, because it isn't hooked up at home yet.
It may be awhile yet before I am back. I hate moving.
Just think of how easier it will be to clean, or do small apartments get messed up faster?
Mine is small and I manage to mess it up in no time at all, but then I am guy and we are slobs.
Thanks for the Retro I always enjoye these things~!
