But thankfully, I now have dozens and dozens of new Internet friends! Lots of them come from Laos or Malaysia, and have just started writing in English; it’s amazing how much they’ve picked up in such a short time, and how much they know about online pharmacies! I also appreciate the advice on where to get Cialis, Levitra, and Viagra for cheap; Lord knows I wouldn’t want to pass into middle age without the proper preparations, if you know what I mean. You’re so kind. And to those of you from Ukraine and Russia, I don’t know if you know this, but your keyboards are acting up or something; when I logged in to moderate your comments, my screen was filled with pages and pages of words written in letters that I can’t read. I tried turning the computer upside down and giving it a good whack, but nothing — sorry.

(I wish people would cut it out with the spam comments. This is moderated, and I’m not gonna click on your links, and if I recognize your IP addresses, which are logged, I will ban you.)
