    typo. Can You? ah, believe? Aaaaaargh. huh.

    Pedinska and old Jim Montague?

    Cookie monsters holding hands,

    and each as happy as 2-beagles.

    O VA gown for Pedinska + Jim M.

    O, they are free. No resell gowns.

    It's illegal. O, hug a shaggy mutt.

    I'm so in trouble. No read @ UT's.
