Does your conscience function? Don't those pictures even move your heart to a tiny bit of pity? Instead of killing the consequence of your sexual behavior, why not take responsiblity and do the right thing.
I'll ask again...What's wrong with mercy?
Surely you jest. :o/
Their true colors shine through, don't they?
Plus ca change, plus c'est le meme chose.
2002, 1938.
You have no understanding of what it means to be a man.
We protect innocents. It's what we do. Abandon that, and you're nothing at all.
Sir, may I stay in the sewing room instead of the kitchen? I HATE COOKING!!!!!! Please?
I'm funnin' with ya. (partially...the truth is I DO HATE cooking). The serious part is the abortion. I pinged you to another thread. When you have time, would you do me a favor and look around the whole thing?
Everyone else, don't go bugging the Rain-maker about MY ping...this is our little secret. Between he & I & about .....oh ....50,000 others.
The Queen has AGAIN spoken.
Another real man bump. :o)
Get over here, Spookie!
BABY GIRL BUMP!
Gee, it must be a lot less hassle to go through life without a conscience.
How do you do it?
Shhhhhhhh.....you'll wake the household.
Oh please. Again with the denial. Oy!
Another real man bump. :o)
Thank you. Ben Franklin thanks you too.
You don't mean.....do you?
I'm not jealous, Granny. Just so terribly concerned for the mental torture you put yourself through...day in day out...24/7. Poor thing. Pfffbbbttttt.
Wait. I need a good come-back. Queenie will return.
