It's the ultimate act of selfishness to push your genome out there, particularly when there are 7 billion of us already. Not saying it's a bad thing to do, just saying that fulfilling our biological imperatives is selfish by definition.

Studying the package whilst the mailman was writing down my intel… First I saw the "Dwaas Teef", which translates roughly into "Fool Bitch"... Oh look: a halfhearted attempt of the Megadome to insult me in my own language...

But then I saw this at the bottom… I almost burst out laughing with my mailman next to me...

This roughly translates as "ugly cow with too much make up on"... Where the hell did you pick that up, Mega???

I saw a guy in a museum with his family over here (in Tokyo) wearing Ironheart jeans, my first in-the-wild sighting, very cool

Hi, my name is Clint and I have a problem:

I started moving yesterday and this is the first time I've had all of my IH/TW shirts together in one place.

[Bluegrass]

Looks like like you are "blessed" to me.

[Aetas]

Do not see any problem at all.
My problem is to count the IHSH numbers in chronological order.

November sounds like a better possibility, hopefully can arrange something fun for u both. i know of a nice little town near Hachioji that's beautiful in Autumn… scenic hiking and trout fishing~ and of course, safe cuisine for the Madame to enjoy

It's a deal.  Paula sends her love and can think of nothing she would like better to do.xx

that's a lovely build you got for your closet Clint D.  You need some greens & yellows.  You got blue & red covered.

[Clint_D]

Thanks Monday!  I do need a little more variety in there.  Hopefully once I rebound financially from the house remodel, I can pick some up.
