we ate at a fancy restaurant tonight – me and daughter Lou. I knew my order before arriving, but Lou reads the menu. Freddy, our waiter, came back several times but she was not ready.

Premium Member Lou

Let me get this straight I said to my Aunt Lou. He’s a scholar, an athlete, a violinist too. She nodded. He is always happy too, never blue. Now you are telling me he can fly? Is this true?

Shirley Lou McDying was obnoxious and loathsome. Please let me add despicable, irritating and spiteful. There was frankly nothing delightful.

We discussed her evilness and her jealous strife, Until the boss made...
