I've been lurking here for about 1 1/2. I remeber my first visit. I did a google search on "something" and in the top ten was "Gun P0rn: a Naughty Expose' of the fiddly-bits" How could I not click on the link...been a fan ever since. http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2005/06/its_that_time_again.html#comment-27944 http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2005/06/its_that_time_again.html#comment-27944 Mon, 27 Jun 2005 08:42:14 -0600 Liberals infest every child's bedroom, a trip through the Imperial Arsenal is a great antidote to the fetid winds that blow in places like our Borg Colective/People's Republic of Suburban Maryland.
