Hilarious! The yellow page listing for the funeral home. Frozen Foods.....bwahahahaha!
The Dr. Pepper Museum has more traffic than my blog? Someone shoot me now, please.
I also liked the frozen foods thing. And butterflies love for six months? Then what, the sleep around?
accidentally listed as frozen foods...yeah, sure.
So, like, what, you rub the crocodile dung all over yourself and then no one will sleep with you?
Hussy!
Sorry..that was a typo earlier..it was live..not love for butterflies..I assume you all got that though.
LL!! What have you been doing??
Crocodile dung is still a very effective contraceptive this very day.
No guy wants to go near a chick with croc dung shoved in her hoo-ha.
At least, no guys I know.
I would have thought butterflies lifespans were shorter.
