mmm, remind me *NOT* to drink with your friends james... I dunno what's worse... the tiger balm or the fact that sticking one's hands down each other's pants seems commonplace...

ive never tried tiger balm...i feel so innocent
Don't worry Freya, i have resisted the persistance of others (not mentioning names) *points above* to try tiger balm on my nipples.
I was offered it again for sore muscles just the other day and could not bring myself to it!! So keep your innocents. I know i'm trying too!!!!

it's a very fetching shoulder bag... and as tony so rightly explains... it holds masses of stuff in it... and it was a gift... and it has a romulus and remus theme sewn (or weaved or however the hell it was made) into it...
you all wish you had one too...

wonder what's wrong with it? it's a car... I mean, it could be anything... probably something to do with that under-the-hood-i-ma-jig...
I knew it needed a new coil pack about a year ago... is that bad?
