I've been changing my locale on a regular basis since yeterday. I moved to Albania for a few hours, then Bolivia, now Latvia. I am hiding from the Internet Boogy Man. IBM for short.

What?? He couldn't get you a date with Sean or Rummy or the V.P. for your birthday? Some husband! I hope he at least takes you somewhere better than Hot Dogs 'R' Us.
Have a great birthday anyhow!

He is hiding because the only one who should be receiving his personal info is the pastor at his church. If that's too confusing try asking someone with a screen name of something vet some details about their service. The Kobe threads. They draw you in and make you crawl out, using your fingernails.
Does that sum it up Flurry?

Looks like the virtually unanimous answer to the obvious question is....... SATAN!
Although I suspect that even the Prince of Darkness himself would deny such a heinous copulation!
To: TheGrimReaper
i just got back from the grocery store where i saw, at the checkout, this weeks Weekly World News cover which has Hillary embracing an ALIEN, with a headline about her sneaking away to UFO love nest. i LMAO! she is reduced to coupling with species from other planets....
