Jeez louize, taxing a person simply because they are wealthy? No other reason, just an added tax on top of what they already pay? (sigh)

Petroni, I saw that last night on the news. I didn't realize that they had a floor and half of the Chase building.

Did you also see that Andersen was they auditor until they fired them... I think it was early this yar.

No! He didn't say that??!! Did he? ROFLOL.

Although I was just thinking that if they lurked, Sean knew of your vociferous defense of him from the attacks perpetuated by the triplets with different mothers.

Speaking of circumcision, let me ask you a question.

Since there is no foreskin left when full rigidity os obtained, how does the Doctor know he isn't cutting off too much, thusly robbing you of extra legnth?
