I was in a restaurant with a friend, and we had been waiting a <I>long</I> time for our food. A waitress went by with a tray of martinis, and I wanted to grab one and gulp it. But not because I wanted a drink, I wanted to do something outrageous because I was hungry. I also thought about grabbing someone else's food order as it sailed past.Billhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11041374614464589328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16472085.post-77158108258352070912008-04-24T12:00:00.000-06:002008-04-24T12:00:00.000-06:00I believe everyones bottom is the same.
