JB, you are a hopeless male chauvinist pig! ...

Had to see who she is, so will try to fix your little red "x."

There was no red x when I previewed the post. Shouldn't be an issue now.

I only give lib chicks three or four hours of my time and then they have to go on their way. I don't care for stupid girls.

And you can never give them your phone number either. Once a lib chick spends some time with a conservative guy she can't get enough of him. Calls All. The. Time. They're brutal.
