Comment by De Villo Sloan on August 16, 2012 at 7:03pm: This little piggy went to market,
This little piggy stayed at home,
This little piggy had roast beef,
This little piggy had none.
And this little piggy went...
"Wee wee wee" all the way home...

Comment by DKeys on August 16, 2012 at 3:45pm: New term for the urban dictionary, or fashion trend-either way, Chaplain of Dkult, Neil Gordon has declared himself a Trashpo ho! I've never been so proud to say I'm a ho too.He has managed to put the stamp on in 3D it is raised up about a 1/4" due to padding/bubble wrap underneath I first thought it might have microfiche under it, but I dare not remove it. It will be going in the vault where all the ancient secrets are stored
