Mr. Flav - would nudity disqualify a contest entry?
I'm asking for a friend who is me.

I should clarify that I riding in East Silesia at the time. The sheer force needed to propel me from Boston to Prussia would render me into rhubarb jam.

Oh, what a delightful trip down memory lane. "The Discerning Nun", this was my brand of choice!
Not a surprise at all that it went ignored in Paris.

It's about time! Having to carry lumps of coal as currency any time I travel to Bulgaria is incommodius in the extreme.
And if you "make it rain" in a Bulgarian Gentlemen's Club, you give the dancers Black lung.

Dear Liz, you started out great here. A list of factual, despicable events that no true American could ever conscience.
You then threw it all away with the blandest, lackadaisical non call to action. Next time you issue a statement, have an aide pull your hair strongly whilst composing.

While I vociferously agree with the language here, I still consider this image to be Defamatory and you will be hearing from my solicitor.
I have never once donned purple hosiery in my life, Sir.

If anyone was going to accomplish this, it was Tyler. Fifteen "official" children and a host of others sprinkled across the South. He couldn't keep his tippecanoe in his pants.

Running this swill is proof positive there isn't a single journalist of integrity left alive in the offices of this mullet-wrapper of a paper.

I anticipate Harvard will next announce they are expelling all international students immediately, thus baiting the Trump admin into a Looney Toons "Duck Season - Wabbit Season" bit.

Leopold was in truth one of the most attractive monarchs in all of Europe at the time. But, due to excessive inbreeding, if he saw a bee he had to try and eat it, just like a canine.

The damned Freemasons seduced me with only those delightful secret handshakes, it doesn't take much.

A stirring piece and a fitting choice.
Though, as I told Strauss to his face when I met him in Vienna, "If you think that much abused river is anywhere close to blue, have your eyes examined, forthwith!"

Let's all pray this goes better than the 1860 Royal Tour, when the Prince of Wales was set upon by a rutting moose and was never able to play the viola again.
