Tell Simon why we want JWD to stay... our apprecaition...

by burningbridges in

when i was a little boy, i feared the elders.

older sisters also told me what to do, as my father not a witness.

when i was appointed a servant, i feared the elders more, even though i was very obedient.

Nicole Kidman: It is understood by many in the industry that many of her roles were part of a deal for being a "beard" for Tom Cruise.

Spiderman: Great. What's wrong with you?

Sushi: Is not just raw fish. "Sushi is the dish, not the just the fish." Raw doesn't equal bad. Just different.

Literature: Some of it is pretentious garbage.

This, quite possibly, may be the most trouble a virgin has gotten into since Joan d'Arc.
