I did, but when you said "That would be me,"...

No, a trick question is when you ask a hooker what her price is.

Thanks. I've always been rather interested in the abilities of the
throat.

I'm more of a beer-and-pork-rinds person when it comes to condiments.

When you set your sights high, the climb may be steep but the conquest
on top is worth it.

Glad we agree. Men are the planters that plant the seeds, women are the
loam in which the seeds grow, and anything else is just so much
fertilizer.

"Wirst"? Unfortunately, when I was over in that neck of the woods, I
never got to visit Holland. Some of the boys went to Amsterdam, but
when they came back they didn't exactly talk about windmills and
dialects.

It's better to be specific when you're calling something "nice". For
instance, if you eyeballed a man's muscles and told him he had a nice
bulge, his face would beam with delight.

Well, one should be non-offensive afterwards, too, of course. It's just
not as critical.

Aversion or repugnance is not fear. I may avoid a glob of vomit on a
sizzling summer sidewalk, but I'm not afraid of it. (To be honest,
though, if I see maggots, my stomach churns a little.)

Familiarity breeds contempt and I certainly didn't want to breed *that*
when I fooled around with gynecologisms.
