    This story was mediocre at best.

    Rather than worry about this jibble squirt, why not make a generous donation to Vaginas for Jesus?

    We are a convent of bitch-hos who have dedicated our coochies to the big man. That's right, no snatch for you unless your name is Jesus and you is a jew boy nailed to a stick.

    Donate now and please give generously! Our convent is in dire need of a plasma TV!
