the

to bring along some professional strength "liquid =

If you see the guy who did it I'd suggest giving him a good =

What a squatter! I guess you might say that his performance =
really
stinks. Of course that would explain his wanting to =
practice
tinkling on the ivories. I suppose as long as it all came out in =
the

Well it
sounds like you've got a leg up on things but I'm glad you gave us the =

to try
giving them a little "jiggle".</FONT></DIV>
