I think the male one was determined to get the two females drunk so that he might have a chance to score with them both and fulfill twenty-eight years of masturbatory fantasies.
Times like that make it difficult to ignore the undeniable beauty of the human story.

Did you see Rep. Barney Frank and Ian McKellen on last week's show? I still kind of like Barney Frank, even though he seemed pretty obtuse when he was on The Colbert Report.
