    been driven off by your incessant trolling).

    Guy pretends to think that this group is all about recumbents and nothing
    else. Hells Bells, he is off topic at least as much as I am. I am just more
    honest about it than him.

    That would be a nice change from the narrow-minded tediously

    It's a most effective disguise, by the way, successfully masking any

    I've learned that just about anything is possible here on ARBR.In fact it might happen that you will say something funny once in a while.Hey, it could happen.

    Anyone who makes allusions to the excretory and/or the sexual function has
    reached the nadir. Guy formerly managed to keep his head out of the toilet,
    but he has now descended to the depths and I shall henceforth treat him as I
    do Slugger, another character here on ARBR who has his head in a toilet bowl
    most of the time.

    I don't think anyone will ever want to bother with your web page since you
    are into excretion. After all, we most of us have our own toilets without

    Don't be silly, Guy. Of course criminals like security. That's why they

    There is no idiom in the world that approves of dirty talking about the
    excretory and sexual functions, at least not in polite society. What is the
    matter with you anyway? Were you born in a barn?

    Christians believe that their Messiah was born in a barn.

    I dislike the laughter tracks that you speak of and it is just one of the reasons that I no longer watch what the hollyweirds are putting out there these days. The liberal brainwashing is not to my taste either.

    It is correct to say that Christians believe that the Messiah was born in a Manger,wrapped in swaddling clothes.[1]
    It was also reported that an Angel told the shepards nearby that the good tidings of great joy would be to all the people.So you can see that saying their Massiah is a little narrow.

    To say nothing of M. Pujol aka Le Petomane, the toast of Paris society
    in his day for being an extremely accomplished farter. At his peak he
    earned twice the income of the famous actress Sarah Bernhardt for his
    farting shows which were attended by royalty and Paris society.
