    Agree completely. I was surprised there were so many tweets to the contrary.

    That forgiveness video is one of the most beautiful things I have seen. Love it.

    Vlad Guerrero Jr.’s grandmother has been cooking for Dominican baseball players for 2 decades. Reading this story brought me back to Puerto Rico. Abuelas love to cook:

    Nice heart-warming story to start your Sunday.

    Also, good lesson on obeying the Law of Chastity.
    Are you trying to demonstrate the message board version of pre-ejaculate?
