Wernher was the first to theorize the existence of Tang.
For a few short weeks in 1944 Wernher personally added 10% more love to each V-2 rocket launched toward London.
Wernher had the second largest collection of used human skulls in the western hemisphere.

As a child Wernher dreamed of becoming a concert [...]

Here is a poem by Damian Sebouhian, he lives in Northern California, is 37, divorced, and enjoys cheese.

The problem of the sentence that unmakes itself is that where does this get you? (not you, asshole, me). This always is how goes it in my head then out the other head. Too many heads in this town. Who cares? Jesus cares. He drives a Cadillac up and down my street looking for [...]

For the purposes of clarity the Indians will be skins, and the Cowboys will be shirts. There will be a 15 minute intermission after the third scalping. Both sides are encouraged to shoot to kill, as no one likes a pussy. Also, all the ammunition has been replaced with cornflakes, if you can [...]
