Perhaps his absence is a sign of hope. If there is mercy in the world, Captain Harry Balfour of the West Africa Squadron will spy this ship tossing upon whatever sea she sails and board her, set her captives free, right every wrong. It is not too much to ask. It is far too much to ask. It is not.

Need I say more?

Just give me happy stuff, okay? Yes, yes love hurts & women in love are stoopid & most hot guys are untrustworthy cads. 🤷🏼‍♀️

CatLass007 In Living Color! Awesome choice. Did you watch the competing Super Bowl Halftime show? I think it was 1992. Two snaps, a twist, and a kiss!💋 7mo

TheKidUpstairs Sorry the book was no good, but LOVE your image choice! Three snaps in a zed formation!!! 7mo
