"The water is stiff!"
I hereby reclaim all the innocent words which have been twisted to hold sexual connotations...stiff, toss, screw, slam, and all the rest.
Thanks for sharing, PJ. I've been in a bit of a slump and needed that. Stanton's story about needing blood transfusions to survive when he was born prematurely hit me. I went through the same thing. It took me a long time to realise that my first passion (storytelling) was the only thing I was really good at, and though I failed at everything else, those blood donors did not donate in vain.
