gee, Elf, I (almost) meet those requirements and I’ve always wanted to travel down under. Red hair? RRRRROOOOWWLLL! Homer, I sent e-mail, but didn’t specify type. I actually don’t care- g, x rated, makes no difference. It’s the thought that counts (Awwwwwwwww!) hehe ---

Homer…sorry. Parents have made themselves clear on this. (it sucks to be sixteen, I know…) In a few years if I still have the internet and it still exists, perhaps I’ll be available for the secret santa…but until then. ☹ Sorry, if this throws off your secret santa thing. Have fun everyone else! ---

Dear anonymous doper, I realize that you, like most dopers, are intelligent, witty, and sophisticated. Be that as it may, I can envision your thought process upon recieving my name and address. “Hmm… andygirl. She’s a lesbian. She doesn’t care what her gift is rated. I know, I’ll get her a dildo! Ha! Isn’t that witty?” I would like to make this explicitly clear: **If you get me a dildo, I will beat you to death with it.** A vague disclaimer is nobody’s friend. -andy ---

Just a thought Zoggie but how bout using a friends address? You have it mailed there in care of your friend and that way your parents wouldn’t get too upset. Just an idea because I hate for anybody to be left out. And that idea isn’t terribly dishonest is it? ---

Address sent. (Now wishing he asked for an X-Rated gift) Oh well, but I did just say anything other than x, so in theory, I could get a XXX present, yes?
