| | | | | Err - John. I - er - don't have a daughter. I'm nowhere near having a daughter. I'm not even part of a couple yet. And not only that but when I do start going out with someone, I kinda hope it'll be with a girl who doesn't want any children. I buy (...) (25 years ago, 17-Aug-99, to lugnet.general)
