there is a microcosm of the illegal alien debate right here in our own locality of NoVA.

Home at last and lighting the grill for pork chops-

I'm getting sick of hearing how
We should be more understanding
Of the poor illegal aliens
Who just keep on demanding

They didn't come here legally
So I just don't have a clue
As to why I should even care about
Their screwed up point of view

And as for the politicians-
Stop giving them all a pass
And tiptoeing gingerly around them-
Start taking names and kicking ass

I thought that was caused by being married to a Marine.

I thin I need to go to sleep................

I honestly do not believe I have ever eaten as much as I have today...........and we also dealt with 2 hours of little league practice and drive time since we left the seafood festival.

I am embarrassed about how many dozen steamed and raw oysters and clams I ate today.........one person should never be permitted to eat that many in one sitting.

I will gingerly dance around the insinuations of this topic: Backwards and in full waltz, foxtrot, two-step and polka steps.

Make sure you write to her on nice paper.....Do not fold spindle or mutilate (er, palpitipiate)...

'Orgasmi' The Sensual Art of Folding Paper

ORIGASMI THE SENSUAL ART OF FOLDING PAPER


By SCOTT STEVENS

TOKYO -- "Now you fold the paper this way, and then you fold it over like this -- and then, if you've done it right, you will barely be able to concentrate!"

So exclaimed Miraka Yong, demonstrating the ancient art form she made famous in her Japanese best-seller, Origasmi -- The Sensual Art of Folding Paper.

"Paper is like a lover, very soft, very sensual," Yong told Weekly World News. "Yet it has a cutting edge if you mishandle it.

The secret to achieving sexual gratification through paper -- as with a lover -- is to handle it slowly, building the tension and then press -ing down firmly to take control."

Origasmi is becoming so popular with young Japanese women that government officials are worried about a population fall-off.

"Young Japanese women are bored with Japanese guys who spend all their time working, playing video games or entertaining clients in karaoke bars," said a member of Japan's Ministry of Social Trends, who insisted upon anonymity.

"Now they're taking matters into their own hands."

As can be expected, many Japanese men are quite upset by the fad. "My girlfriend replaced me with rice paper," said Toby Akiro. "I've lost all respect among my friends and colleagues. Except for Akira, whose wife left him for a piece of corrugated cardboard. He said she liked it rough. He understands."

According to Yong, Origasmi began centuries ago, when Japan was ruled by warlords.

"While the men were away fighting, the rulers gave the women paper so that they could write to the soldiers and improve their morale," she said.

"But not all women knew how to write, and as they folded the paper to make tokens for their men they found the experience stimulating."

The paper industry is under- standably ecstatic about Origasmi.

"With the growth of e-mail and the Internet, paper use has been way down," said Barry Cobbs, a paper magnate. "This has made paper sexy again -- in a whole new way."

As Yong put it, "Origasmi would definitely be something to write home about -- if I wasn't so busy using the paper for another purpose."

I'm green with envy-I love raw oysters, but hubby can't abide them, so I seldom get to indulge.

Good morning, Robert! I like this!



Gingerly, she brought her hand to her lips
and blew a long kiss to the four winds.

One to the North for the old
One to the South for the bold
one to the East home of the sun
One to the West where day is done.

Eating dozens of oysters? Could that be a cause of that PSAS condition that Argh says Texasgirl has?
