Hearing Zero --Smashing Pumpkins

Kissing is Fun




But I'm guessing you knew that. Here's a nice long article about kissing, it's history and why people like it so darn much (it beats Yahtzee!). I'm not going to help you with the practicing part, however. You're on your own for that, pal.

    When reading my joke, keep in mind that I topped out at a full 5 feet tall... so any height jokes I make at anyone beyond Athena (and to be honest, I'm sure she'll surge past me by the time she's 12 or so) are launched almost straight uphill.

    I still want to know who that skinny guy with all the hair is who's making out with your wife.  

    (sorry man...  I couldn't resist)

    You should have worn heels, or insisted that she didn't.
