"Almost." Edward said as we walked off from the booth. I was close to giving that toothless ass behind the counter a piece of my mind.
"Everybody knows...almost doesn't count." I was still ticked as we walked toward the gate we had come in. I still don't like to lose.
"What do you mean?" Edward asked as he shoved his hands in his pockets.
"My grandfather used to say that almost only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades. Then my Grammy would answer, "Yes, Poppa, everybody knows, almost doesn't count." It's true. Think about it. When is it almost good enough?" ADC- Chapter 4
" It'd be a new hit blockbuster, Indiana Peen and the Jungle of Pubes, which was the sequel to Raiders of the Lost Arse. Those would be followed by Indiana Peen and the Last Thrust Made. Many years later Indiana Peen and the Kingdom of the Cumming Core would round out the series. I could picture me now, hat on my head, leather satchel slung around my shaft, and the whip...
