Do I think Henry will call you?

Do you want kindness or truth?

Draw a straw and let the chips fall...

Ah, You have the short one.

No,Henry will not call.
Henry has never met you.

Henry likes to take a drink.
If there is a nip in the air
He will undoubtedly drink it.

Drinking makes him thirsty.

It takes only one drink
to make him drunk.
It could be the fourth
or it could be the twelfth.

He drowns easily and dies.
Liquor mortis sets in.

Henry has never met you.
You spent the night with Hyde.

Hyde has no preference.

It matters not to him that
your I.Q. can be checked
with a tire pressure gauge.

Hyde knows that beauty
is only a light switch away...

And Henry will not call you.

I wish I were that cheap a date, m'self.

Liquor mortis...that's a first time line for me, surprisingly.

But maybe my liquor is the dream that he might?

*wince*

sigh

<--izzit any wonder my head hurts all the time?

Hard truth is seldom gentle. But at least it's always hard, mortis or not?

I'll shaddup.

Enjoyed the word of warning though.

wow brutal

I guess that is why women can't exactly complain about the guys they meet, if they are meeting them in bars...
