I challange you to a debate on the reason for mothers. Obviously, yours has failed you and you are tainted in your view of mothers. What about father's day??? How many have bailed out on their pregnant significant others? What about that, you coward? It has not happended to me...I just think you need to view the whole picture. Let's meet face-to-face, or are you scared? Valerie You are, by far, the biggest loser that has ever lived. I challange you to a debate on the reason for mothers.

Heh..."You're not allowed to get a tattoo, that's not what women like you get! You're going into law and are going to be sucessful!" "Actually, mom, I've had a tattoo since 16." I won for once! But my mother was, as I affectionately call her, A Big Swedish Bitch, or "The Battlecruiser". So true!

No Irish son would ever think about saying something like this about his mother. All Irish sons know that their mothers are perfect in every way, and we know this because Mom tells us so, and she wouldn't lie, would she? She's our mom.
