STOP this madness[/i] don't start that start what crying, you always do that to change the subject I do NOT see, you've managed to change the subject Okay. NO! yours is not the biggest everyone I've ever known has one bigger than yours now, I've answered, please leave me alone ((((((((overpowering silence)))))))) you mean you think Fred's anemic and common rose bush is bigger than my Scepter'd Isle Rose Shrub my rare and larger rose bush you say is smaller than Fred's I'm calling a divorce lawyer I'm living with a cruel woman oh dear, I need to go lay down now ~ I went to a restaurant that serves "breakfast at any time" / I ordered French Toast during the Renaissance ~ [This message has been edited by JerryPat2 (05-25-2011 09:21 AM).] |
