that dropped this alien off on our planet. he's definitely new to the planet.
or he could say he's from another planet and I'd believe him.

Why is it in my Oxford Concise Dictionary, then?

I would think that "burgled" is what a person (of desperate means, not doubt) does, while the state the apartment is left in would be described as "burglarized" as said burglar has done his thing there.

And don't worry about the pictures, it's just George. He's like that.

The only flying saucers that I've seen are in the Movies. Like "When The Earth Stool Still."

Not me. Like I said, it's just George, and that's the way he is. Of course he does turn heads, but he has been doing that for about 20 years or so, so that's nothing new either.

And hurt Kevin's butt cheeks too.

By the way, I just read your remark in the dcolton banination thread in the feedback zone and I've been banned a long time too.

The only thing I could think up 'what for' was putting in too many abuse reports on some guy who was a toal bigot. And I called him one. he was banned also. That was long ago so I could be longer than you.
