Do you remember the documentary 'exposing' her as a crypto-fascist?

I think I should point out, in the name of fairness, that you bought me a very lovely bunch of daffodils ... with coriander.

A kind of genderless, or poly-gendered, sweetness that is equally attractive to those of any orientation (or do I mean to a certain kind of peculiar soul of any orientation?). Anyway, I think it's LOVELY.Jeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08690685768980280402noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9143707484157174122.post-21344791102918868372008-02-15T10:22:00.000+00:002008-02-15T10:22:00.000+00:00Awww ♥Stray♥, I would have been good...Awww ♥<STRONG>Stray</STRONG>♥, I would have been good to my word. Pet names of fond endearment are always a special magic best left secret (or, there's nothing wrong with a bit of "aw, diddum widdums" between lovers).<BR/><BR/>PS: Though it has a hetro slant, I thought this description of <A HREF="http://www.museumofconceptualart.com/nature/penguin.html" REL="nofollow">Romantic Penguins</A> might give you some hints and tips. It might at least explain any fondness for fish.XXYXXhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05205278384614133047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9143707484157174122.post-35568472276355700752008-02-15T08:49:00.000+00:002008-02-15T08:49:00.000+00:00OK.

Here's my penguin story [from the days when it wasn't verboten for children to talk to strangers]. <BR/><BR/>Mother of shy little girl is surprised when her daughter chats happily to two nuns sitting next to them on a bus. As they get off the mother says to the nuns "I was so pleased that my daughter talked to you. She's usually very shy." One of the nuns replies "Ah, you see, she thought we were penguins!"anticanthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18135207107619114891noreply@blogger.com
