I'm not a Christian, (for them as didn't know ;) ), but I would have thought that doing good works was more pleasing to god, if one posits that he is a loving and merciful one...

Sex is like pizza. When it's good, it's very good. And when it's bad, it's still pretty good.

Also, bad sex is better than a good day at work.

And I believe in you
altho you never asked me too
I will remember you
and what life put you thru.

~this world was never meant for one as beautiful as you~

...for then I could fly away and be at rest. Sweet rest, Mom. We all love and miss you.

The thought struck me:

a Satan sandwich...

and then I thought, I *really* shouldn't go there...

Wait, backup a bit....oops!..i don't mean THAT way. :o :oops:

"Two track" applies in a Ménage à trois because each person has to be aware of the other two.
A 3 track mind is just a plain orgy, you sicko!
Speaking of, when's the next Elohimfest again?

Who's calling who a sicko?? *You*'re the one who brought up the ménage à trois! :P And you also have a very odd idea of what goes on at an Elohimfest. Now, Fantasy Bedtime Hour gatherings, otoh... ;)

rdhopeca: So I was riffing mentally on your "Satan sandwich" line, and happened to think of the peanut butter poll in the Tank, and.... Let's just leave it at that.

WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME TONIGHT??? I am going to get off the computer and do some knitting. You people clearly are not safe to be around....

When are we ever safe to be around?

Peanut butter poll in the 'Tank?
Fist mentioned something about that in chat recently.
I don't frequent the 'Tank, but as Galley mod, can I log a protest?
