  • If you have a woman who’s a real bitch, you’d better keep her on a short leash, otherwise, she’ll get into your credit cards, get into fight with other bitches, and drag your good name through the mud.

  • Wow.. you said ‘bitch’… what a sad attempt to get this noticed. Maybe authoring web pages after you’ve gone through puberty?
