Hehe, I see what you did there. As far as I know, I’m not related to these people, either by blood or looks (picture not available for now), and King Richard The Lionheart died long before I was born. But Sanford was an interesting TV show. May they rest in silence.
Hehe, I see war has been declared while I was away. Well, while I might not be able to compete with the lady’s headstrong nature, there’s a glimmer of hope. At least she knows I don’t look like Quasimodo from The Hunchback of Notré Dame–no frightening visage, no unorthodox table mannerisms either; promise of healthy offspring without blemish.
Strangely, all these push and pull theatrics are just out of the baseless fear that I might bruise her priceless and reclusive Miss Squeamish.
