Yikes! My grandfather lived in Enumclaw. I've been there many a time.

[fairoriana]

Hee hee... that's even funnier if you've ever been to Enumclaw...

[philipvale]

That's going to be an awkward conversation.

Huh. The online version of E&P apparently is a bit more interesting than the print subscription I get....

I didn't know that 17 states don't outlaw bestiality, either.

It looks like the reporter handled it quite well, though.

[philipvale]

It's literally a bunny ranch.

[lietya]

Quite possibly.

Actually, I was impressed by that attitude towards bestiality - that if the animal was "consenting," and it wasn't abuse, it's not an issue for the law.

(Anyone who believes animals can't consent has never seen a mare who *didn't* want to be mounted.)

Ben knows that look all too well.

(Like that, a&*hole...that syosset comment will buy a few of those!)

I wondered about that hoofprint on his face a few weeks back....
