It was hard for me to pretend not to ogle Miss Sadie every breath I took right there inside the circus tent.I suspected she was used to it because mos...t of the other circus girls were a bit on the homely side or had muscles in places where nice, soft female flesh should be all curved and waiting for some male attention.

She took mental note of how cute he was.Stephanie took the flowers into the kitchen and placed them into some water while Brad stood just inside the front door waiting on her."You two have fun tonight," Stephanie's mother spoke softely to Brad from her seated position on the couch.Stephanie's parents loved Brad like a son.. Dad can, but you shouldn't.Also worth a quick mention is that in this and one of our earlier interviews, my parents thanked the people of Benton County, "For letting us build our home where it is. As we'd feared after the Government kidnapped and killed Mark, and the CIA-led attack on our Peoria Road home, the Government's ongoing illegal attacks against our family could easily have killed several innocent people if we'd been living close to any neighbors. Without our living in a home equipped.
