There is always truth to be found somewhere in fiction. Sounds like a Supreme Court bachelor party.

Yikes, I am sure not into the wild side. I got spanked enough as a child! I would bid a hasty retreat! I do enjoy watching the old burlesque movies where you can't see much but feathers as in your photo. Fun limerick Jan. : )
