What’s a six-letter word for “uh-uhh-uhhh-OH SWEET JESUS DON’T STOP”? 3
I love crossword puzzles. My father got me started when I was a teenager and I’ve been working them ever since. Not only are they fun, they’re also supposedly good for your gray matter.

Man on the moon? No prob. Man who’s never seen porn? Fuhgeddaboudit! Reply
Science is amazing; it’s done things for us that people living 500 years ago couldn’t even imagine. It’s put a man on the moon. It’s cured diseases that once decimated entire continents. It’s even given us blankets with sleeves.
