It's ok, he knows I'd only kick him because I care. Kindof like spanking my kids, just with a little more force..

NOW do you understand? I liked women better when they wore that white geisha makeup, had their hair up in a bun with little chopsticks holding it in place, and when they walked, did so with this little tiny mincing steps.

Oh wait, that was in 19th-century Japan.

I like women that are docile.

Except when they are not. I like those too.

I like the ones in the middle too.

I'm very choosy.

LOL!

Sorry I'm late. Got my hand caught in the wringer washing machine. It looks as if it must be amputated. When will a new washing device be invented?

Aren't you an inventor of sorts, Lazie? You could make millions. "Lazie's Devices" would be a good name.

It's normal to focus on the pleasant memories but it's not nice to attack fellow posters, especially using a word that Al Gore made famous. You're not Al, are you?

I have no pleasant memories.

My life has been 24/7 torture.
