I’ve been a regular reader of the Darwin Awards for a couple of years. It proves my theory that evolution does work, by removing the terminally dim from the gene pool. 🙂 * * * Underneath my clothes I am completely naked. ---

Byz, my hair is terminally “poofed.” I don’t need a “poofing device.” And I had to return the lighters; they didn’t work worth a “shit.” I do think I’ll need a few more condoms, though. Now c’mon over here and try on one of these french maid outfits. Anybody want some chips? * * * Easy one-step assembly instructions. Pour **Beer A** in **Uncle B**. ---

Uncle– honey, the poofing device wasn’t for you… and you can get all the condoms you need AFTER you give my card back. Um, by the way… where is it? You didn’t give it to someone else, did you?
