I will promise you one afterlife: death.

If you're looking for an afterdeath, on the other hand... dial I-DIE-FOUR-YOU, and we'll discuss your options Smile

That so? Then get off your fat ass and be that person. Giraffe

Some do.

The rest have PTSD.

I find that it's awfully hard to be blissful with parts missing, unless you're talking about that ecstatic release as you let go... it's a rush, sure.... but it'll sure end in a hurry.

Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word

Well...if it's gonna keep him from hanging himself from the sustainably sourced clothes rack in his mommy's louvered full length walk in with his dads favorite pair of pantyhose.......I'll chip in the money for a rough hooker named Steve.

There's very little in life that hoookers and blow won't cure. Let me see what I can do about an eight-ball.

Forget the hookers and eight-ball for him. It would be a waste of a perfectly good time. On the other hand, if you want to send it all my way, I can guarantee that (1) I'd know what to do with it, and (2) the incident wouldn't degenerate into me whining about not having fun/pleasure.

Now, hold on one second there, son. We have standards around here, you know. Best send that Peruvian marching powder over here for, er, quality control inspection.
