written a pretty good ballad on an ACTUAL INCIDENT LAST WEEK. (Actually,
it's pretty traumatic and is being treated as a serious assault by the police).
How on earth did you know that the Gemini II

There is nothing Kelso girls like less than a pretty face, unless it's

getting waylaid and scarred
for life by members of the plug ugly majority!
Oh David, how could you malign the young ladies of your adopted home
