What do you mean by 'sticky-tape-and-twine methodology'? You might realize that your approach is not so bad, it just needs some minor adjustments thats all. The hardest part about 'going big' is realizing that you have to change your attitude and style. Clearly you do not suffer from this problem. Drinking In The Sun Forgot Password?

Nish, you are taking homosexuality too seriosly. Some people find pleasure in it, is there need to go deeper (excuse the pun) than that? I have a friend who gets turned on by older women. I'm sure there is some sort of explanation for it, but who cares? Personally, in most cases I see homosexual activities nothing other than glorified masterbation. Thats all. :rose: peace to all humans. We are more similar than we think we are.

Voting allows me to say "thanks" or "lol" or "what crap" without having to reply (which is slow)

They are offering songs at incredible prices. I don't see how this could be legal. :wtf:

Funny, Fitta in Maltese means annoying female. :eek:

And then there is Starship Titanic, written by a friend of Douglas Adams, altough the story idea was conceived by Adams. I forgot the authors name, but on the back cover there is a photo of him - on a chair, naked with his laptop covering his parts. Apparantly he wrote the book in the nude.
