Go back and look at the difference between that last young person and the preceding old person. I conclude he ate out most every day.

Children on the beach is a wonderful thing...

I told my daughter that some scholarships may want well-rounded students and she may want to look into sports. After getting a coach to dig the equipment out of a closet, she formed a fencing club and named herself president even though they only met twice.

I have been known to bring an orgy to a grinding halt.

Photography...

Behind every masturbation there is a successful imagination.

Vaccines do not cause autism. How many lives has it cost for whoever invented this poppycock? And why?

I have no idea what to say about this...
