GET READY cause we're putting on our ALMAY LIPLINER, and batting our EYEs and polishing our NAILs. You could say we're SHOWOFFS. But don't give us any SASS or POISONED LOVE is all you'll get! The boys are back in town, too, with DON HO, OTTO, BONO. Off to a pub CRAWL. Just don't invite Billy INGE, as I think he has some issues and LAOTSE is no party animal, either. <br /><br />Captcha: wolity-a cup of tea wearing long undies?ddbmcnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8626052240584383873.post-22571531615799908952010-12-06T18:42:06.229-08:002010-12-06T18:42:06.229-08:00Nice puzzle, but I needed a lot of crosses for phi...Nice puzzle, but I needed a lot of crosses for phis and shag!machttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06794371617847975218noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8626052240584383873.post-73872327423057499692010-12-06T17:02:14.227-08:002010-12-06T17:02:14.227-08:00Didn't solve this morning due to lack of time....Didn't solve this morning due to lack of time.
