I am very sad that this free love/orgy thread has been neglected in recent years.

Oh, yes, it was a juicy one, was it not? It was fun to relive -- thanks for the reminder!
The title seems rather apropos these days (in a less fun way).
But now, you'll have to excuse me: I am not a font of words this morning, so I'm going for a long walk. If you and Milo are out and about, I'll be the one with two dogs -- if you see us, give us a wave (from a healthy distance, of course). Cheers!

Re: Holding It Together
typical Lisa wordplay. It's Sunday here in Europe today. Sunday church baptism "font". I get your witty post. You disown that you are "a font of words". I am rather font of your modesty.LisaLCFan wrote: ↑Sun Apr 05, 2020 7:03 pmsolongleonard wrote: ↑Sun Apr 05, 2020 8:32 am I am very sad that this free love/orgy thread has been neglected in recent years.

Hey Milo is permitted to wave and I have instructed him to watch out for the Lady with the Pekinese and the St Bernard.
