I wrote about the pleasures of touch, or perhaps I should say seeing with the hand.

Hope you make out better than Vermont did last month when a no name storm dropped as much as 9 inches in a day. Montpelier, the capitol “city”, has been basically destroyed. All stores and offices

that's so recent!

native Nyers have loathed this walking turd since the '80s. I don't know anyone of either party who thought his insane hunger for attention was anything but crude and disgusting, then just tiresome. remember the front page of the NY Post..."Best Sex Ever?"

it was that fucking "Apprentice" that seemed to change everything, despite the fact that it was all fake and, and, in reality, TFF is too scared to fire anyone to his or her face.

so I figure you're actually pretty lucky: you've been spared YEARS of stress.
