Gingerlily - The Full Wild | 34228 comments He could be the subject of a short story, or a sub-plot. Or just a paragraph in an otherwise exciting narrative...

Benor's Boring Brother. An Epic in Nine Volumes.


I bet under that boring facade he has a dark secret.

Gingerlily - The Full Wild | 34228 comments No, I'm more into Cohen.




message 1133: by Jim (new)

Jim | 21812 comments less lotus I'm afraid :-)


Gingerlily - The Full Wild | 34228 comments But more shoup.

message 1143: by Jim (new)

Jim | 21812 comments I know, and the penalties for petty theft can be pretty high if you get arrested at the wrong time of the morning

Memo to self, always be the second person arrested :-)


Gingerlily - The Full Wild | 34228 comments Or commit your crimes in the evening.

Gingerlily - The Full Wild | 34228 comments A bit of basic common sense helps too.
