Kim "Butt" Johnson (she is the wind beneath my wings) Joy my friend at work for believing in me, Rich Gilmore, my closest friend.
About me: I was born April 18th, 57years after the great San Francisco earthquake and fire. When I was 6yrs. old I knew without a doubt that marriage was not my bag. I told my parents "I'm going to be a bachelor when I grow up!" They laughed like it was the cutest thing. Who's laffing now? Me, the swingin' bachelor. I also share a b-day w/ Clarence Darrow, the lawyer who defended Leopold and Loeb. He is known for saying: "Everybody is a potential murderer. I've never killed anyone but I often find satisfaction reading the obiturary columns." I also share a b-day w/ Conan O'Brian and Lil' baby Suri. I feel much younger than guess-timated age. I remember burning down a vacant house with my girlfriend Lori; as the cluttered room was iluminated in flame I found myself deeply entranced , mackin'on some guy named Rod. Oh, if only to ever touch that pagan ,lustfull, saytr of a man again...

Is this what Obama meant when he talked about troop withdraw? Abstaining from Iraq would have worked best, but since we already went in looks like we had to keep nailing them. We couldn't do complete protection, because we wanted to make sure we deposited just enough to leave evidence we had been there. We tried the rhythm method, but that ended up in a bloody mess. I've heard of playing it safe, but this is ridiculous. I wonder if this was the change he was looking for. Also, I sit here pondering why they re not magnum condoms. Are they subliminally telling us something about our president? Looks like we won't have to worry about him using any big missiles anytime soon. Looks like someone is not looking to shoot into any foxholes. Hmmm... I dunno... LMAO!!!
I am trying so hard to find balance in my life, it isn't easy. But thank you for your friendship and kindness. It comforts me in the most unexpected and much needed times.
oooh..sweet and tender hooligan ...will i ever get to smash yer face in again....oh the whisky and the bruises......so sweetly taken...my tiny ol heart is a breakin...
I was thinking of you and thought I would stop by here and leave you some xoxo and I saw what you wrote about me . I had to call the Boy Nurse to tell him how honored you made me feel . Of course he was outside talking to a client's mother because she returned the client because she went AWOL on an outing ((sigh)) such as life at Crestwood Anguish ((LOL)) .
Warmest xoxo my dear friend . You have touched my life and I love you for it .
Sorry for the belated birthday wishes Richard. I have been overwhelmingly busy. I just finished a 7 day stretch of all work and no play. I am thoroughly exhausted on all levels.
I do hope your birthday was as beautiful as you hunny!
