As a straight guy, I can assure you that that ploy only worked if the girl in question *always* did that. But the girls who would even *consider* doing that were all too stupid to realize that consistency was important, so they'd go from an A cup to a B or C cup every once in a while, which was always good for a laugh. And while I don't know who forgot to lock up the RAThouse last night, it's nice to know that it wasn't someone *too* crazy who found the front door open. Or did you break a window in the back? -- Jim G. | A fan of the good and the bad, but not the mediocre "Good evening.
