However, when I tried to look into this person and actually use the site... well I found myself at a complete loss and I really haven't been so confused or frustrated since voting for the kitsap county elections...

LMAO!!!  <a href="http://bjornborg.com/">BjornBorg.com</a> is the best thing I have seen in such a very long time. That video was nothing short of amazing! It reminds a great deal of playing the sims and besides, they apologize very nicely for lacking the funds to make three videos for each type. I'm sure in the future they will but until then i'll be laughing my ass off.

Priests weren't always barred from marriage.  The rule was set by the Gregorian reforms in the 12th century because priests' wives were becoming too prominent in the church, pretty much fulfilling a role similar to rabbitzin.<br />

And there are plenty of Jews who eat pork.

It's bizarrely cheesy in a Red Shoe Diary kinda way, and not at ALL gay-friendly as this ad would have you believe.  Despite telling the site I'm a man seeking another man, it pasted my potential mate's face on a woman's body (you have to see it to understand).  Horrible!
