The 'bot has been gone for two nights, and we've had company for both of them. Tonight we're alone. Oh, my gosh. Hopefully, the kitchen table will have just us eating around it!

Did your mom ever make peanut-butter-and-banana sandwhiches?
(There's several kinds ... You can slice the banana and lay them next to each other, or you can smush the banana and peanut butter together into a spread...)

"I find a white female rapper as disturbing as a Christian lesbian. i do not see anywhere in her article, how she reconciles her lifestyle choice with Scipture. "
Well, on a thread I was on a few months ago, someone challeged the people who always talked about gay males to find where the bible says it's sinful for women as well and I don't remember seeing that they ever found anything. I've seen the verses showing it's wrong for men, but not any about women.

I like my mushed together...peanut butter, banana, and a touch of mayonnaise. Place that on slice of wheat bread, add a few plain potato chips, and top with 2nd slice of bread. YUM!

"Why Do Gays Smoke So Much?
Because they have a need to suck on something?I've often wondered if the vast majority of homeosexuals (many of who sport mustaches) aren't trying to simulate other things (i.e.; sexy bushy objects) as they perform oral sex on each other......
