I don't count birthday's anymore...just happy to be looking down at the ground instead of looking up
This thread is just rubbing me the wrong way. I might get short.
Hope you don't get static from being rubbed the wrong way.
I'd have thought you'd get a charge out of reading it all.

I dated a girl who was pretty freaky for a while. I made an off-hand comment once about zapping myself off an ignition coil and she asked if I could set something up to zap her cootch.

She was a freak.

This thread is starting to no longer spark my interest. Perhaps its pulse needs its exciter charged. I’m sure that will cause a surge.

Not that I have them anymore, but you don't want those digits.

People I know who still run in the same circles as her say her last SO died suddenly and under somewhat suspicious circumstances. The one guy says he thinks that she literally stressed the poor bastard to death, and frankly, I can believe it.
