If you replied to "Are you fat?" with "Lord no, I'm abdominus", would that make you Father TEd? noho ora mai http://maxqnzs.com/References.html Copy Link to Clipboard Share Post on Facebook Share Post on Twitter Re: O, that this too too solid flesh would melt #147601 09/08/05 11:36 PM Joined: Sep 2000 Posts: 2,788 Seattle, Washington, USA Father Steve OP Carpal Tunnel OP Father Steve Carpal Tunnel Joined: Sep 2000 Posts: 2,788 Seattle, Washington, USA would that make you Father TEd?
