    Wow, awesome. I'm sure my son would love to adopt you as an uncle. Right now the one he has just lets him kung fu him,lol. Even though he enjoys beating on my brother, I think he would give his right arm for that swing set.
    Hearts and thoughts they fade....
    fade away...

    I am at peace with my lust.....for Eddie.
