Good and funny stuff. Loved the pic.
The post below made me feel bad. I don't dare begin naming off what needs done aound here.
Very funny!
Hahahahahahaha! Loved it! This reminds me of a family story about our travels in Europe. It was me, my sister, mom and dad. We were in Monte Carlo and decided to visit a casino. We went to a table and one of the dealers addressed my sister. She asked him to repeat, which he did. She looked around blankly. He tried again, so I answereed and spoke with him. My sister looked at me with this expression of awe and said "how did you know what he was saying?" I looked at her like she was stupid and said, "uhhh...he was speaking English". I had no trouble communicating with him, but my sister didn't even know realize he was speaking the same language. Funny how differently the brain can perceive things.
Nope, I don't see any sheep....YIKES, that's WAY too many naked bodies in one location than I can BARE Peter.
Fascinating exercise. And yes, at first I was lost. But by the time my training was over, I understood TenJewBerryMuds at once!

There was a Chinese restaurant at home that whenever I called for delivery, he would recognize my voice and ask....you raunt chicky fly lice? Gotta luv it.
Is Asian room service always female?
Great post.
Was the photo done with PhotoShop or its equivalent?
It is amazing how the mind is able to grasp things when led down the path.
.....b...bu...but ttt, Peter...that's too much butts to imagine all in one place!
I'm with Jack K in above post...
was this photo done in photoshop? I can't imagine people actually doing something like this!
Or am I just naive? lol- could that be it?

Oh, they are soooo nekkid ! And covering up the best parts at that. See my eyes are still good even if after searching the photo of what must be nudist convention for some radical group worshipping the ground.
Having just got off the phone with a computer expert from India, I can certainly sympathise with "Tenjewberrymuds". I must have said, "Please speak slowly" or "Will you repeat that again." at least fifteen times.
Oh, woe, buttcrack as far as the eye can see. Woe is me....
Whats really scary is I do need glasses but for some reason I saw that exactly for what it was. Its amazing how some things just relate, isnt it?
