- Lanny's Will Be MissedJoeyDined on 6/27/2014I am disappointed that Lanny is changing the concept of his restaurant but looking forward to trying his new one. Lanny's Alta Cocina was by far our favorite special occasion destination. The food is fabulous - adventurous, creative, consistent. His churros are the best I've ever had or ever will have. I hope they are on his new menuSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Loved it!TCUbroadDined on 6/20/2014Great service, great meal. Chef Lanny is very friendly with his patrons. Sad to see them closing their doors, but excited to try out the new, casual, "Righteous Foods."Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Unexpected gemAlexBVIPDined on 5/17/2014Just wow! We went for the prixe fixe with wine pairing. Not the standard Mexican cuisine, but Mexican influenced foodie menu. They were very willing to exchange out some elements to meet the preferences of our group, no qualms. From the soup, seafood, to entree.... all fabulous with well paired wines. Excellent food, served well, not rushed. Will do this experience again!Special Features:
- Great findDucktomDined on 5/2/2014Great food and romantic setting!, a real find these days with the noise level so high at most places! Loved the creme brûlée!Special Features:
- Good not greatjy15Dined on 5/2/2014Good food, innovative and creative menu, one entree delivered against expectations, the other was average - very good service - food is a bit pricey but, wines are over priced I will go back again to give it a fully evaluation.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- PerfectionaklesokDined on 4/26/2014This was one of the most outstanding meals my husband and I have ever had. We participated in the Chef's menu and each item was better than previous. Our waiter was attentive, personable, and very knowledgeable. I would highly recommend this restaurant. One of the best in Fort Worth!Special Features:
- Simply the bestmlpjlkVIPDined on 4/23/2014Lanny's is one of the top restaurants in all the metroplex and he has masted the art of cooking fish to perfection. A casual and understated atmosphere with fresh seasonal menus. There is no way you can go wrong with Lanny's for a special occasion, business dinner or a large group.Special Features:

- A happy surpriseOpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 4/18/2014We lunched here on a Saturday trip to the museums in Ft. Worth and were very pleasantly surprised by the excellent food, beautifully presented, in this elegant converted hiome.Special Features:
- Very pleasant experienceLOLODined on 4/9/2014We are not from Ft. Worth but have eaten here before. We took friends to dinner and everything was just about perfect!!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Had a fantastic mealDCtravelerDined on 3/22/2014My husband and I had never been to Lanny's Alta Cocina, but now we are initaited, we will be returning often. We both had the Tasting Menu, and savored every bite. I asked to substitute one item on the menu, the veal sweetbreads, and they gladly allowed me to have the tamale in mole appetizer instead. I have only had veal sweetbreads one time--at Thomas Keller's French Laundry in Yountsville, CA, and I sent them back. I assumed they are just not for me. But then I tried some of Lanny's on my husband's plate, and they were deleicious. I am a convert. The sea bass was velvety perfect, the carne asada was outstanding. I can only say if you have not eaten here, do so! A hidden gem in Fort Worth.Special Features:
- If you love a geniusAnnabelleDined on 3/12/2014Lanny is a genius who is not appreciated fully by the Ft Worth dining scene. He is a master chef and his menu shows this genius. There is great thought put into the menu and the execution is perfection.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Dinner for Valentine's DayOpenTable Diner Since 2009Dined on 2/15/2014Dinner for Valentine's Day was wonderful, as all of our visits to Lanny's have been. We each chose a different 3-course dinner and, of course, sampled each other's food; everything was scrumptious! The bonus of the chocolates at the end of dinner just added to the wonderful experience we had that night. The wine pairing worked well with all of the courses, except I would have preferred to have a less-bold selection for the sea bass (the red wine that was chosen for that course went very well with the steak, but was a little heavy for the fish).Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Valentines hater no more!!TglavinDined on 2/14/2014This was the best place ever! I am a huge foodie and I am close to saying this is the best meal I have ever had!!!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Overall a great spotChitownFoodieInTexasDined on 2/13/2014Small, quiet and quaint. A very nice place for a special occasion. Portions were fairly small for the price but the food and the presentation were phenomenal. Wait staff was very attentive and the chef delivered the food.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Food tastes good-looks good too!OpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 2/8/2014Good food attractively presented. Outstanding wait staff--attentive but unobtrusive. A bit expensive for every day dining but a really special place to go. One of my favorites when I want to spoil someone a little.Special Features:
- Indescribable!OpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 1/21/2014Words can hardly describe this dining experience. The flavors of the foods prepared were exquisite. The balance was perfect. You will have to go back several times to get a taste of all the fish and meats and all the....... Please just go!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- 4 star experience 2 quibblesalvin09Dined on 12/31/20134 star experience 2 quibbles music too loud. steak knives dull need to be heated to cut butterSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- The botanas (appetizers) wereAlejandroDined on 11/22/2013The botanas (appetizers) were excellent, especially the duck tamale. The carne asada was fair, but the highlight of the night were excellent deserts (including a wonderful guacamole ice cream). After having recently moved back to the US from Europe, this restaurant possess an offbeat kind of Euopean "feel" that might not be evident to Fort Worth regulars. The ambiance may be closer to Spain than Mexico actually. It kind of reminded us of a restaurant just at the step of El Convento de San Esteban de Salamanca (without the spectacular view of course). Overall a good experience.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Once again, a good experienceKarenVIPDined on 11/16/2013I always enjoy dining at Lanny's. The food is sophisticated, fresh, well-prepared, and beautifully presented. Don't expect Tex-Mex, because that's not what they do (thankfully!).Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Foodie fabulousNo1FoodieVIPDined on 11/16/2013The food is unique and fantastic! One if my favorite restaurants!!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- A much-needed restaurant for DFW!vandylionVIPDined on 10/25/2013Incredible food - does a great job of being inventive and clever and melding some combinations of ingredients you wouldn't necessarily would have thought would work AND sourcing high-quality food without being fussy. The staff and the chef were incredibly warm and generous and thoughtful. Taking the menus after we ordered our appetizers so we wouldn't have to deal with them was a nice touch and a nice subtle reminder to take our time with the dining experience. Make sure you get the chocolate cake with mango-avocado ice cream - I could have eaten five more! The whole experience was great and made the night feel like an occasion.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- october 19bendaDined on 10/19/20136 course tasting menu with wine pairing was excellent. aside from some confusion on part of server about wine sequence service was great. foie gras course was superb! great new fall menu just introduced. always a great experience!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Too much noise and no way to escapeFWdinerVIPDined on 10/12/2013The food is always wonderful, the service gracious and helpful, but our last visit to Lanny's was unbearable because of the extreme noise. Two very large parties mixed into the regular dining room made the dining experience miserable for anyone else in the room. We left before finishing our dessert and coffee because the piercing laughter and screaming conversation from one end of a very long table to another made conversation at our table totally impossible. It was a completely miserable experience. It will be a long time before we go back on a Saturday night for sure!I would recommend this to a friend.
- Truly amazing!GramTXDined on 10/5/2013We went here before attending a preview of a show at the Kimbell and we loved it. We started with wonderful margaritas that were the best we have ever had. The menu was very intriguing, so we finally decided to do the tastings with wine. Every bite and every sip was perfect. Even if you don't do the tasting menu, you must enjoy their extraordinary goat cheese key lime pie. We can't wait to return.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Lanny's is the Best FW RestaurantLuvitDined on 9/27/2013I have been to this restaurant twice and loved it both times. First time I mistakenly entered the restaurant in ultra casual clothes, however the impeccable service treated me no different than the other patrons. Both times I had the 5 course tasting menu paired with the wine tasting menu. Excellent.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- A Wonderful MealBrowner56VIPDined on 9/26/2013My wife and I recently had dinner at Lanny's for the first time. We found both the menu and the wine list to be so varied and interesting that we ended up ordering the five-course tasting menu with the wine pairings. That option was slightly pricy, but we found the entire experience to be well worth the money. All five courses--which were selections from the regular menu--were outstanding and very inventive. (In fact, despite the restaurant's name, this is more of an upscale American-European fusion restaurant than one that features traditional Mexican cuisine.) The wine pairings were perfect and, in each case, we were served a glass of something we had never had before. We look forward to our next visit to this outstanding place.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Lanny's Exceeded All ExpectationsMadMacDined on 9/25/2013Service began with a meatball amuse-bouche. Tender and flavorful, it was a great sign of things to come. I decided on the lobster ravioli from the tappas menu. My Mrs. had the asparagus soup both were WONDERFUL. Mains: the carne asada was tender and juicy but the STAR was the ancho-gnocchi. I didn't think I liked gnocchi and only tolerated it before this experience. My Mrs. had the house-made Tagliatelle with veal/ancho Bolognese. You must, must, MUST try the Tagliatelle con Bolognese. My Mrs. made clear she was leaving her conference to have the leftovers in the room. It was that good. Two quibbling points. While the chocolate cake is good, the avocado/mango ice cream is not. There's booze in the coffee. Boy is there booze in the coffee.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Wonderful Anniversary DinnerSteveDined on 9/24/2013These guys are always great and the food is awesome. We did the wine pairing with our multi-course meal and this is always fun and a great learning opportunity. Never disappointed! StephenSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Birthday DinnerOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 9/7/2013I took my husband to Lanny's for his birthday. I had requested a romantic table and we were seated in a tight space between two large groups of people. The food was good except the service was very slow. I noticed that it was someone else's birthday in the next table and everyone said Happy Birthday, but nothing was said to my husband. I specifically mentioned when I made the reservations that it was my husband's birthday and I really wanted to make it special. Thanks, Victoria AndrewsSpecial Features:
- Wonderful Neighborhood RestaurantOpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 8/31/2013Had a wonderful meal at Lanny's, again. Took some Dallas friends there and got to show one of our great Fort Worth restaurants. Each of us had a different entre; Rack of Lamb, Pork Tenderloin, Carne Asada, and Sea Bass. All wonderful. Great coconut mojitos top it off. Service was wonderful, unrushed but prompt and attentive.Special Features:
- Great service, food worth celebratiworldbound4nowDined on 8/31/2013My wife and I had the pleasure of eating at Lanny's. We were greeted by a competent maitre d' who who had read our reservation request and held an appropriate table for us. The service was excellent and impressive to experience. We ordered the 5 course tasting menu with wine pairing and were greeted by wonderful, appropriately sized servings. The roasted red pepper soup was amazing, and set the bar for the rest of the presentation. It was so nice to have Lanny serve many of the dishes and stop for some small talk. Sea scallops, halibut, and lamb followed and each was a flavor journey worth taking. Desert was a goat cheese and key lime cheesecake that was wonderful. We've already passed the word on to friends and family.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Revisit Does Not DisappointTroutlilyDined on 8/30/2013It had been a while since our last visit to Lanny's and when we saw it listed as a restaurant choice to support a favored local charity we knew that it was time to make a reservation. Besides the regular ala carte menu Lanny was offering a prie fixe dinner with some of those proceeds going to support the charity so we chose that option. We started with a delicious cream of pasilla chilies soup containing chunks of quail and avocado then moved on to choices of pork chop and lemon sole for the main course. We also chose each of the two dessert options. Everything was delicious with reasonable portion sizes and excellent timing of the service. We also chose the optional wine pairings with each course and Lanny always does a great job.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- A Lovely Dining ExperienceSuzanneVIPDined on 8/30/2013My husband and I recently dined at Lanny's. We both had the lemon sole which was delightful. All of the dinner courses were delicious as were the cocktails. This is a wonderful restaurant.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

I thought I had heard it all when it comes to men, but this is a first: Men who refuse to kiss. Yes, apparently they DO exist – unlike the Keebler elves. These anti-kissers usually provide a laundry list of reasons why they don't want to smooch their honeys.
I received an email from a woman who says her guy is not a fan of kissing. He downplays this as a hangup that she may have to "get used to" which means "this won't change." The phobia of kissing is called Philemaphobia and it is a real issue for some people.
I am a big fan of kissing and I can't imagine dating someone who was not. I mean, what else are you supposed to do with your lips when you want intimacy? (Actually – don't answer that). I honestly don't know what advice to give the young lady! What should she do?
She is unsure if the issue is that her man doesn't like kissing – or does not like kissing her. Would it bother you if the person you were seeing had some quirky hang up about sex or intimacy?
Have you ever had to tell the person you are dating that there is one thing that you simply refuse to do? Do you think certain hang ups are deal breakers?

I never heard of someone not wanting to kiss. This is new to me. It is stated that he is someone she is "seeing" that doesn't equal up to a relationship so that is not "her man". He might not kiss those he is just "seeing" and gives an excuse. shrugs. It would be a deal breaker for me, i love to kiss, that would be sad not even little pecks of affection..

I mean, what else are you supposed to do with your lips when you want intimacy?
I will answer that! If you're lips are good for doing other things with and not kissing, then it aint intimacy, it's just sex!
He downplays this as a hangup that she may have to "get used to" which means "this won't change."
See that's the bigger issue, she has to get used to it, no compromise, so what else does she "have to get use" too?
Would it bother you if the person you were seeing had some quirky hang up about sex or intimacy?
Naw because if it bothered me enough to email a stranger, I wouldn't be seeing them
Have you ever had to tell the person you are dating that there is one thing that you simply refuse to do?
Do you think certain hang ups are deal breakers?
YES THEY ARE! While I'm not going to try and make anyone do anything they don't want to do, I'm also not going to deprive myself of something I really love to do! (If one want, another one will)!!

'Men who refuse to kiss'
I think it's your ears Diva.
You sure it's not 'lick'?
He maybe a very bad kisser. Or maybe,like me,when he gets a Lil intimate and kisses he wants to complement that with a Lil twinkly fingering…..down there….and she doesn't like that.
Doesn't like kissing? hmmmm
To think that there are some men who just want to dive In..no wasting time with kissing?
I can see that but not me.

A man who doens't kiss! WOW back off!
Oddly enough, I have a guy friend who doens't like kissing. He says it's nasty and the few times he's kissed it turned his stomach, made him want to vomit. I for one would not be with a guy who would not, does not, will not kiss. no way jose'. Kissing is the prelude to…..well you know and I just can't see going straight in, no 4 play at all, c'mon. Is he into kissing my forehead or cheeks? Maybe I could work with that! NOT
there are some men that I would not kiss. There mouth is stank and all jacked up.

good morning y'all. in my best Scooby doo voice "uh oh". I am not a fan of kissing. I can't count the number of times some guy has moved in for a kiss and I turned my head to the side. occasionally I'll throw a dog a bone and give a little peck on the cheek or something but all that slobbing each other down is kind of nasty to me. I think kissing was the thing to do as a teenager when it was all new and exciting but at some point I figured it's mostly nasty and I don't do kissing. truth: it's been years since I've kissed-kissed a guy.

Morning All!
It would bother me if I was dating a person who refused to kiss. Like Single said, what else would would there be a straight line, no compromise on?
Quirky hangups about sex or intimacy?
It would depend on the hangup.
Deal breakers?
Yes, I imagine there would be dealbreakers, not that I can just rattle off a list right now.
No, I have not yet had to tell a person I was dating that there is one thing I simply refuse to do. Are there things that I would tell a person I will not do? Yes.
January 8th, 2013
9:21 am
Morning All!!
Yeah, that's a little weird, not wanting to kiss. I would have to get to the bottom of exactly why & is it that he just didn't want to kiss me. I'm paranoid about having bad breath so I would need him to not spare my feelings and let me know if that was the problem. If that's not it, and he just has a hang up about it, I don't think I could "get used to" it. A kiss can be more "intimate" than going all the way. I actually dated a guy once that was not big on kissing. He didn't refuse to, but he just was not very affectionate at all, rather cold. I don't want an octopus, but I don't want Ice Man either.
Have you ever had to tell the person you are dating that there is one thing that you simply refuse to do?
The only reason we are even entertaining this as a topic is because the guy in the situation refuses to do something intimate. If the shoe was on the other foot, dudes would be chiming in left and right. Women get crucified for refusing anything intimate and get the "if you won't, some other woman will" threat, no matter how disgusting she might deem the act. If he cheats on her, then everyone, even other women, justify it because she wouldn't do XYZ. Just another double standard if you ask me!

Morning, blogging from my couch.
I am a huge fan of kissing. I cannot imagine being with someone who doesn't like to kiss. It would bother me tremendously. Kissing is definitely one of the many forms of a sensual connection. Kissing emotes many desires, expectations. A good kiss can be the catalyst for many nice things to come soon after.
As far as a sexual hangup, it all depends on what it is. If his hangup is something I need or desire, then the relationship has gone down a dead end street toward demise.
disco ~ if you can count the number of times you turned your head, I hope you cannot count the number of times you actually kissed over the years (lol).

Good morning,
Hi, my name is Slim and I'm in a "barely kissed" relationship. This is the first person i've ever dated that was non too thrilled to kiss. He can go on and on about reasons for not doing it and it definitely was a HUGE adjustment. I can probably count on one hand a a few fingers the amount of times we've really really kissed in a 2yr time span.
January 8th, 2013
9:28 am
I had an ex who didn't really like to kiss and it turned out that he was bad at it. I didn't care that he was bad…I wanted to kiss when we were intimate. When he would kiss me during sex, I would show him how much it turned me on and encourage him to do it anyway.
January 8th, 2013
9:32 am
Plus he is allergic to lip gloss, chap stic, sun screen stuff like that, so i'm not sure if it stems from being burnt from bad allergic reactions in the past or what.
January 8th, 2013
9:33 am
leggs – I'm absolutely positive that I haven't kissed (a real non-peck type kiss) in years. how many years? I'm not sure, maybe around – OMG. okay. I'm embarrassed to admit how many years it's been. maybe I should have put kissing on my resolution list. lol.
January 8th, 2013
9:35 am
SlimNu ~ does he have a doctor's statement that he's allergic to those things, or is it something he's telling you in the hopes you will accept his reasoning and stop asking?
January 8th, 2013
9:36 am
Disco/Leggs – Now I cannot stand a sloppy kisser! That is disgusting! If that's the best he can do, I'd rather not! So yeah, he has gotta pass the kiss test with me!LOL!!
January 8th, 2013
9:37 am
For me, kissing is far more intimate than intercourse. I have slept with many women and never kissed them. That's not what we do. Kissing is reserved for love making, not f*&kin. If you are in a relationship and your man won't kiss you, he may be of a similar mindset,.
January 8th, 2013
9:40 am
Du – See that's what I was thinking of when I read this topic, your post. I think it will be accepted better coming from a man than me saying it.
January 8th, 2013
9:44 am
I guess some people are not kissers, I've been fortunate enough to have come across a lot of kissers in my day and although some were not good at it, I took the liberty to show them how to pucker up. My beau loves to kiss, and boy can he kiss – oh my!
January 8th, 2013
9:45 am
who kisses with their eyes opened? Is that romantic or just being nosey to see how the other look while kissing?
January 8th, 2013
9:47 am
how does it feel to kiss someone with tongue peircing?
with a full grown beard/mustache?
with gold teeth?
with missing teeth?
with dentures?
So many questions
January 8th, 2013
9:49 am
kimmie ~ I cannot stand a sloppy kisser either. Having to wipe your mouth afterwards and then wash your hands is such a turn off. Ummm, how can I say this w/o being overly graphic? I had a guy who during oral was messy as hell. Had to put a washcloth under myself. Yes, Ex, positive it was his rain forest of a mouth than my juices since it was the same in and out of bed. What a wet mess!
DuShawn ~ I agree 100%. Kissing is a form of intimacy not necessarily reserved for those you're just kicking it with. "Busting slob" isn't reserved for everyone (lolol).
January 8th, 2013
9:54 am
lol @ Leggs
January 8th, 2013
9:55 am
DuShawn & Kimmie- I agree, it is more intimate for me as well.
Button- No grillz allowed; I would rather not get lacerations from kissing, lol.
Leggs- Ummm, there is no way to say that without being overly graphic. Yuck, lol.

I've kissed guys with a goatee and that's ok as long as they don't let it get overgrown! I don't want a mouth full of hair!!!
I have my tongue pierced and seems like the guys I've kissed since enjoyed it…

The funny thing is when a woman you have determined to be undeserving tries to kiss you unexpectedly. You start moving your head back and from side to side. You be like "whoa! Lil mama.
WTF you doing…….Girl stop playing." If they become too persistent and aggressive, you sometimes have to catch them with a light but firm forearm shiver.
January 8th, 2013
10:12 am
Leggs – I've heard him complain about his lips feeling funny and I've seen reactions whenever he comes in contact with anything with those contents in them. I have to use the coco butter stick instead of regular chap stic around him. One day he made a mistake and used mine and started complaining about his lips feeling funny. I'll usually lube my lips with coco butter before I put on lipstick. I've also seen him break out just being in the same general area of someone else spraying on sun tan lotion.

Never kissed anyone with a tongue piercing, gold teef or missing teef. Dentures, yes. Mustache, yes, grown beard, nope.
I have a friend who insists I should not sleep on men w/o teef because they are excellent at oral. Hell, she's 62 so perhaps her contacts probably do pull their teeth out. I hope to never find out (lol). Well, hopefully no time soon.

Kissing is reserved for love making, not f*&kin.
I like to kiss…I think it's sensual and very intimate and thankfully I've been in relationships with men who liked to kiss as well. I couldn't imagine being in a relationship and not kissing the man I was with..even if it's just a peck it strengthens emotional bonds and shows affection.
On the flip side of that, I did date this one guy who was an awful kisser who left my face wet and I really did not like kissing him…thankfully he didn't mind a pointer or two in the right direction.
That's all behind me now 'cause Mr. Bermuda has lips as soft as "butta"

WOW, that's unfortunate, SlimNu.
DuShawn ~ I've seen a woman demand a kiss from their mate with him ducking and diving. Why force someone to give you a kiss (esp. in front of others)? She looked very silly to me, but I sat their chuckling to myself.

WOOOOW lol

For me, kissing is far more intimate than intercourse
DuS – Well, where does Oral fare on the level of intimacy? I mean, the beau and lick that thang but have issues with kissing just doesn't make sense.

who kisses with their eyes opened?
When I was in college I dated a tantric lover who was into that…he was like that guy from "Single Ladies" that wanted to breathe each other's air…and when we kissed we'd look into each others eyes. It was definitely different…

Closing your eyes while kissing helps savor the kiss itself. To kiss with my eyes open will take too much concentration taking away the delight of the kiss leaving me to wonder how to keep this kiss going w/o laughing.

Sassy – It is weird when you open your eyes during a kiss and the dudes eyes are open too!! I've taken a peek before and had that to happen!LOL!!

-SlimNu- If I lick that thang, our breath will smell the same, beause Imma come up right after you bust, face looking like a glazed Krispy Kreme doughnut, and tongue kiss you slap in the mouth. We going all in on the intimacy at that point, no inhibitions, just unbridled pleasure. A$$holes, toes and elbows.

It's weird to be kissing someone and you peak just a wee bit and see that they are staring back at yo ass.

beause Imma come up right after you bust, face looking like a glazed Krispy Kreme doughnut, and tongue kiss you slap in the mouth.
On the real…LADIES HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT THAT?!
Me personally, I've done it..I do it and if the blog keep going on with THIS topic ALL day then there's a good likelihood….whoa lemme pump the breaks.
A$$holes, toes and elbows.
I can do the elbows but not ANYbody's booty or toes…just cain't..

Sassy ~ to this day I remember the first time after the do and the release he came up to kiss me. I tried to avert, but he kissed me hard. I knew he was making a point so next time, I tried to break his face (lol).
January 8th, 2013

Sassy – Not one of my favorite things. I'll usually oblige because it turns him on…

I knew he was making a point so next time, I tried to break his face (lol).
Daaayum Leggs
As for me…what can I say?…if I'm in a serious relationship with you and we go there then it's on. It's hard to contain that passion when you're really in the moment…
January 8th, 2013
10:50 am
I'll usually oblige because it turns him on…
I understand that Bluz and cudos to you for doing that b/c you know he likes it…that's rather selfless of you.

"tell the person there is one thing that you simply refuse to do?"
Unless we are in a committed relationship kissing will not happen. Too many men and women use their mouths for sexual pleasure without thinking about the consequences of their actions. I think kissing is a very private sexual act. I reserve "kissing" for my woman only.

Soooo anybody watch Love and Hip Hop New York last night on VH-1?
January 8th, 2013

DuS – I don't have any issue with it but WHY doesn't that get reciprocated. A dude will be like Leggs, damn near trying to break your nose if you were to come up trying to kiss his ass after he buss everywhere. Double-standard like a mugg…

I recorded it. Is it worth watching?

The only thing I would ever find wrong with kissing would be is my partner tried to stick her tongue all the way down my throat. I have a severe gagging reflex and I don't want to activate that. Otherwise, I love kissing, especially if the woman I'm with moans softly.

Oklahoma State and Boise State have signed a contract to play a home-and-home football series, the two universities announced today.
The two-game set will begin Sept. 15, 2018, in Stillwater and conclude Sept. 18, 2021, in Boise. Those games will be the first ever between the two institutions.
"It's a good non-conference matchup for both of us," Oklahoma State coach Mike Gundy said. "It gives us each a quality opponent out of conference play, which is ultimately going to factor in when we get to the four-team playoff."
Oklahoma State and Boise State are among the two winningest football programs in the country since 2008. Over the last five seasons, Boise State has won 61games to tie for the most in the country and Oklahoma State has won 49 games, ninth most at the Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS) level.
The Boise State series continues a recent trend of intersectional non-conference football games for Oklahoma State. The Cowboys open the 2013 season against Mississippi State in Reliant Stadium in Houston. OSU begins the 2014 season against Florida State in Cowboys Stadium in Arlington.
Oklahoma State recently completed home-and-home non-conference series with Washington State (2008 and 2010) and Georgia (2007 and 2009).

Film Roll Wedding Invitation
After the magnificence that is the "Tying the Knot" wedding invitation, I was all "ink and paper just won't cut it anymore!!!"
Clearly, other people agree with me, because this couple sent out their invitations in a film roll. You pull the tab to unroll the invite.
Sometimes I think about how I would react if I received a film roll in my mailbox. I haven't seen a film roll in so long I might think someone was trying to set me up with confidential political photographs and not even know to turn up.
Note: I'm not actually getting married, not anywhere close. It's a common misconception based on my enthusiasm for wedding-related things that painfully reflects on my life.
P.S. Liking this Facebook Page will help save unicorns. So really, it's all for a good cause.

10 Talks You'll Want to Have Before Baby Arrives
Also, consider whom you'd like to have present during labor and delivery. "It's totally an individual decision who is in the room … Hospitals have become very acclimated with this procedure and follow [parents' wishes] as much as they can," says Dr. Louis Borgenicht, MD, pediatrician and author The Baby Owner's Manual: Operating Instructions, Trouble-Shooting Tips, and Advice on First-Year Maintenance.
Don't feel pressured to include your entire family in this event—make the decision that is most comfortable for you. Laurel Fay, a licensed clinical marriage and family therapist in Washington, DC, and mom to twin girls, says, "Birth is the start of a period of intense adjustment for the new family, and it is important that friends and family understand that, too, and give the new family time to adjust."
If you're having a girl, you can skip this section—but if you're having a boy or are waiting to be surprised, it's important to address circumcision before the doctor hands you a stack of consent papers to sign.
"This procedure is usually done in the hospital on the second day after birth," says Dr. Borgenicht. "Generally emotional and social factors contribute to a family's decision to circumcise, so these are things you need to discuss—whether the father wants the son to be like him or there are deep religious beliefs that would influence the decision."
Do some research and look at both sides of this much-debated issue. Talk to your partner about why he feels a certain way, and don't feel pressured by what friends or family say. If you do decide to circumcise, says Dr. Borgenicht, make sure you select an experienced and knowledgeable doctor for the procedure.
Recovery Room and At-Home Visitors
Besides who will be in the delivery room with you, try to establish before Baby arrives how you'd like to receive visitors at home. "I think [a visitors' schedule] is a very important topic for a couple to discuss ahead of time," says Fay. "In a very real way, it defines the couple and child as a new family unto themselves and lets extended family know where those new boundaries are."
To avoid conflicts and hurt feelings, Fay suggests creating a tentative visiting schedule for well-wishers. "I would recommend a schedule that is as concrete as possible, with lots of room for flexibility and change. It's also important that the couple be on the same page in terms of understanding what the other partner wants, needs, and expects from the visits of family and friends."

- Great ItalianBaseballVIPDined on 8/23/2014Although after reading reviews of this restaurant I was expecting high prices, I was surprised to see they were competitive with the area and , in fact, on a lot of items lower. The food was outstanding and the service could not have been better. Never hovering, but all of our needs were taken care of without having to ask. My veal I cut with a fork and my wife's seafood was really tasty. Add open table for reservations and you cannot have a complaint.Special Features:
- I Will Return....G777Dined on 8/15/2014This was my first time experiencing Capri. The salad with mozzarella & avocado and the shrimp pasta entrée were very good! The pasta needed a bit more sauce which was promptly provided. Giovanni, our waiter, was excellent and attentive. The only thing I would suggest would be to add candles on the tables for more ambience. I plan to return.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Okay eveningDiningoutgroupDined on 7/20/2014We had made reservations for a special gathering ahead of time. When we got there, they did not have our table for 11 ready and needed to put us in the middle of the dining room. Needless to say, the evening started on a "down" note. However, the waiter was good and the food acceptable. I'd try it again, but with so many good Italian restaurants in the area, might not get back to it for a while.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- ClassicJudyDined on 7/19/2014We always like Capri Ristorante for its classic Italian food and wine. We have never had a bad meal here. In fact, it always reminds us of our travels around Italy. The pastas are wonderful and the meat and seafood dishes authentic.Special Features:
- Great italian rest. downtown McLeanOpenTable Diner Since 2011VIPDined on 7/17/2014My guest and i enjoyed very much dining at Capri and plan to return for more. Recommend it highly.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great birthday celebrationfrequentvisitorDined on 7/12/2014The food was very reasonably priced given the quality of the cuisine. In the evening, it was too loud with all the diners. Lunch provides a more intimate setting where you can converse. I enjoyed my complimentary tiramasu with its birthday candle. After spilling red wine on my friend's white slacks, the waiter provided complimentary desserts to everyone at the table and offered to pay for the dry cleaning.Special Features:
- UnmemorableDanielDined on 7/11/2014The service was good however the food wasn't the freshest. Next time we will try somewhere else.
- Classically ItalianTravellerVIPDined on 7/2/2014With a lovely modern decor and no chianti bottles! Classic Italian menu with some nice specials. Everything was delicious, huge portions. I don't think the pasta is homemade. We had calamari which comes with fried zucchini and asparagus with parmesan for appetizers. I had agnolotti - stuffed with spinach in a rich cream sauce, husband had veal sauced penne. We were happy with our orders and brought home enough food for 2 more meals Husband ordered profiteroles for desert - filled with really creamy ice cream. I had a delicious decaf cap. We'll go back - next time will try fish and salad for healthier choices.Special Features:
- Excellent food- great appetizers.harts1996Dined on 6/27/2014Calamari is delicious! Seafood liguine is well recommended as well.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- CapriSteve50Dined on 6/21/2014Nice atmosphere. Great greeting when we arrived. Appetizers were good. Service good initially... Entree's took forever to arrive, not very pleasing to the eye. Very generic....Not great. Prices good.Special Features:
- OpenTable Diner Since 2005Dined on 6/14/2014The evening was busy at the restaurant and the staff did not seem to know of our reservation. The table offered was right by corridor to the rest rooms, and lots of traffic. However, they did graciously switch our table when we asked.Special Features:
- Totally enjoyed dinnerffxdinerVIPDined on 6/14/2014This ristorante sounded like a great find from reading the reviews on Open Table & it is! There were 10 us & I did not hear one negative comment about the meal. We arrived about 6 pm & were seated at a round table which made it much easier to hear one another. Though at one point when every table was full, it was harder to hear. I ordered 3 different courses with my favorites being the gazpacho & the tiramisu. My husband loved his salmon salad & the homemade agnolotti. I had a taste of a friend's Zuppa di Pesce. That was just so delicious esp. the broth. I'd definitely come back again.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- ANOTHER GOOD TIME!McLeanEaterDined on 6/13/2014Lunch @ Capri ~ always excellent. Elegant service, delicious food, good presentations, great wine.Special Features:
- Food uninspiring and too noisyKarlaLDined on 6/7/2014The food was okay but uninspiring. The noise level was far too loud. Nothing special and better restaurants in McLean.Special Features:
- Solid foodMikeDined on 6/6/2014Good homemade traditional Italian food. Nothing unique or elevated it to extraordinary but you will walk away satisfied.9Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- good food, bit noisyflevyVIPDined on 6/4/2014Food has been consistently good and would recommend it for that reason. Noise can be an issue.I would recommend this to a friend.
- Capri is good, not great41142hltVIPDined on 6/4/2014Capri has come along way since it opened. As restaurants go in McLean, it is good. It is not great, but it is consistent, reliable, and solid. The house wines need improvement, but the wine list in general is good, well priced, and varied. The food is always good, not great. It is a solid bet for a reasonable price and one of the best, if not THE best, in downtown McLean.Special Features:
- great local spotbartlettDined on 6/4/2014Great food and reasonably quite. The ambiance is whit table cloths and pretty quick service. An up escalator and down elevator provides access for easy handicapped access. No view except a parking lot but a good place to have a family conversation.Special Features:
- The following 198 reviews are from the Capri Ristorante Italiano - McLean reviews archive.
- CorbinVIPDined on 5/20/2014We LOVE Capri. The food is always great. The service is wonderful. The room is big enough where you are not listening to your neighbor's conversation.Special Features:
- One of the best in the neighborhoodsommelierDined on 5/15/2014Capri is one of our favorites in the neighborhood. It is best for its veal. Varied and always rightly done. They could improve on their calamari, though.Special Features:
- Mother's DayOpenTable Diner Since 2008Dined on 5/11/2014We eat at Capri once/twice a month. Food is consistently good and staff are very friendly. Had not been on Mother's day before and had never seen the place this busy...but they handled the surge just fine.I would recommend this to a friend.
- BrachBrarchVIPDined on 5/10/2014Great food in a convenient location. A little noisy at night but would come back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Nice Italian RestaurantPaulaDined on 4/26/2014My husband and I decided at the very last minute to go out to eat. We wanted someplace near home and chose Capri. We had only been to Capri once before on Valentine's Day with a limited prix fixe menu. Tonight was wonderful. We had wonderful choices to select from the menu. He had the rockfish which was outstanding and my pasta dish was delicious. We are definitely going to go back again.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Sunday BrunchbaileyDined on 4/13/2014We have gone for brunch twice, and the food is fresh and well-cooked. Because the restaurant is not full for Sunday brunch, we weren't rushed and could linger over our meal.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great meal!PinkShirtGuyVIPDined on 4/12/2014We were a party of four and really enjoyed ourselves. Everything was delicious, service was great- just what you always hope for when you go out to eat. Veal Parm, a special Rockfish, various salads and appetizers were all very good. Can't wait to go back and try something else.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Food was good, but service was slowflevyVIPDined on 3/22/2014Food has been consistently good, but it has to improve the service. It just appears that there are too few waiters. Makes it hard to go back more than on an occasional basis.
- Great neighborhood spotWeEatOutVIPDined on 3/15/2014Excellent pastas, meats and fish, usually served promptly and as ordered and always willing to correct any errors. We choose to dine here often, several times a week usually, and we're rarely disappointed. We often will choose another restaurant when our group is large (6 or more) but this visit with 8 was perfect - food, timing and service, all exactly right even though the restaurant was busy. Lunch and dinner are equally good, and we appeciate the white table cloth service in a casual neighborhood spot, and getting a reservation is usually easy as it's local and small.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Delicious food, outstanding serviceheathwishVIPDined on 3/10/2014We gave this cute place a try and were very pleasantly surprised. I'm not generally one for strip mall restaurants, but wow! You know the food must be good when a group of businessmen are speaking Italian in the corner. Having lived and worked in Italy, that tells me the food and device are authentic.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Enjoyable MealOpenTable Diner Since 2006Dined on 3/1/2014My wife, 3 daughters (ages 13, 11, 8) parents, and I had dinner there on a Saturday night. Overall everyone enjoyed their meal. My veal was thin and tender, my wife's linguini with clams was nice, and they were kind enough to make 3 servings of mushroom risotto for my daughters even though it was not on the menu that night. The service was attentive without being pushy. My wife and 3 daughters have a gluten allergy and they serve gluten free pasta and were also very helpful in customizing some other dishes to make them gluten free. The restaurant was busy, but not full and thus the noise level was reasonable, which made it easy to speak to everyone at our table. Overall it was a nice family experience and we will likely return.
- Bella Italia!JudyDined on 2/22/2014We always go to Capri for authentic food and great service. The seafood and pasta are just like visiting Italy again. This time we all had seafood--the branzino was perfectly cooked and both the seafood pasta and linguine with clams were very generous portions. Topped it off with profiteroles and espresso. Bella Capri!Special Features:
- Repeat visitrwvadocVIPDined on 2/18/2014The dining area is tastefully decorated and crisp. Service was excellent. For was very good but not exceptional. Chocalate mousse cake was exceptional. Moderarely priced and a value. Would return again.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- WonderfulTraceyYDined on 2/14/2014This restaurant was very authentic Italian all the way from the wine to the food. It was priced very reasonably. There were expensive items on the menu but also not that expensive. The one thing we had to deal with was a pouty and crying child near by but I feel that could happen anywhere.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Excellent food.WeEatOutVIPDined on 2/3/2014Being a regular helps I'm sure, but my special orders are almost always perfect (kitchen gets busy) and staff is always anxious to fix anything that's not exactly as preferred - even if you ordered something you ended up not liking. They will take it back to make you happy; that's rare these days. Fish is fresh, pasta is generous and steaming in sauce, white table cloths and personal -- all things we look for in a great neighborhood restaurant.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Good Foodjdu613Dined on 1/25/2014We had a good dinner, not great but good. The restaurant was not crowded when we arrived, but filled up considerably before we left. The service was very good. Our drinks arrived promptly. We split the mozzarella salad which was plenty. The entrees were tasty but we felt the portions were a bit small. The bread was very good. We may go back but are still looking for that knock it out of the park Italian restaurant in NOVA.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

Hi folks,
Ok, so I'm getting my first road going car soon; a Fiesta MkV 5 door. The previous owner upgraded the original cassette player to a CD player, but it's faulty. I'd like to replace it with a reasonably priced CD player with AUX socket. The socket is the most important part, as I'll likely play playlists from Spotify on my Phone, as opposed to lugging about CDs and getting them scratched. Can anyone advise me on this please? I know it's not just a simple case of taking the old one out and sliding a new one in, as it is in some older cars, because it needs the fascia. I've never replaced a radio like this, so I'm wondering what I'll need and where to begin. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Secondly, I'm wondering if there's a spoiler available that's similar to this, which is featured on the MkVII Titanium. Obviously I'm not looking for exactly the same shape, as it wouldn't fit the older model, but something as close as possible to it; backwardly sweeping, almost cowl like in shape and with a wide centre panel. The brake light isn't overly important, but would be a nice touch.
If the year of production is needed, I'll have to wait before I can pass that information on, as I don't have anything to refer to yet (I'm not actually receiving the car until later in the week).
Thankyou kindly for welcoming me to the forums!

Hey mate proud owner of a mk5 here i also have a headunit available on ebay currently going for £5 i believe it has a rear aux so just feed your aux cable down your centre console, comes with iso cables most important part, cage and surround so all you need is the fascia, i will post link if your interested, ill throw in some radio keys if you have the standard fiesta radio in your car if you win
Posted 06 December 2012 - 06:56 PM
Thanks; it's the fascia I'm confused with, what's the deal with them? I've only ever had head units that slide in, I've never messed about with fascias.
Posted 06 December 2012 - 08:50 PM
fascia just pushes in. Really easy. but before you do that put the cage in first and there's 4 tangs which you need to bend to secure it to the fascia. then radio clips to the cage. I believe I have the sony keys also incase you need to remove it. My pioneer slides inside the sony cage because its not a pioneer cage etc.
Posted 06 December 2012 - 08:51 PM
Not much I can say about the spoiler. Not often people mess with Mk5 spoilers
Posted 07 December 2012 - 08:59 AM
Ok well thanks for the info, that's a great help! I won't be able to buy anything for the time being, as I just blew all my money on the car, but I'll be on the look out.

'Bullett Raja' features Saif Ali Khan, who plays a commoner-turned-gangster in the action entertainer.
Bullett Raja (Saif Ali Khan) is a faithful friend and loyal lover. He lives life on his own terms and sets his own rules. He commands respect and fears no one. Bullett Raja, in his true inimitable style, takes on the system that creates people like him.
Directed by Tigmanshu Dhulia, 'Bullett Raja' also stars Sonakshi Sinha, Jimmy Shergill, Vidyut Jamwal, Raj Babbar, Chunky Pandey, Ravi Kishan and Gulshan Grover.
"I haven't done a film like 'Bullett Raja' before... handled big budget film like this. I have never made a commercial film so it was a challenge, but exciting. But, the characters in the film are from north belt and this is my forte. Saif's image is that of an urban kind, so we have shown through his gestures the way he (rural guy) would do it - like holding a glass of water or handshake. We were careful that Saif doesn't look like an urban guy in this film. His contribution is huge in this film," director Tigmanshu told PTI in an interview.

EDGEWOOD, Md. (AP) — The Harford County Sheriff's Office says warrants have been obtained against a man who was shot by a deputy after allegedly turning on the deputy with a machete.
Twenty-six-year-old Brian Ogle of Edgewood is hospitalized at Shock Trauma in Baltimore. Deputies obtained warrants on Thursday charging Ogle with assault on a police officer and other offenses.

The sheriff's office says deputies spotted a man with a machete in front of the home and followed him into the woods. When the man approached one deputy, refusing to drop the knife, the sheriff's office says the deputy fired, striking the man several times.
Authorities identified the deputy as 34-year-old Deputy First Class Bryan Walker, a seven-year veteran.

Tips from the Coupon Queen
When too much isn't enough
Jill Cataldo is responsible for this content, which is not edited by the Wilson County News or wilsoncountynews.com.

I've received thousands of e-mails from readers since the TLC TV series "Extreme Couponing" began airing, many like the following:
"You should write a column about how to do extreme couponing. I want as much free groceries as possible."
And this:
"My store limits shoppers to ten like coupons per transaction. How do these people get away with buying 150 bottles of pain relief pills? My store doesn't even have room for more than 20 or so on the shelf!"
And this:
"I shop at a major supermarket that was shown in one of the episodes. I know they have a rule that they will only double the first two coupons that are for the same items. The rest of the coupons ring up at the dollar amount on them. But on the show, the cashier made it so every coupon doubled. That doesn't seem fair."
One of the easiest ways to get a product free with coupons is to match a $1 coupon to a $1 sale, making the product free. If you have one $1 coupon, you'll take one home free. If you have 100, in theory, you'd take 100 home free.
That's the premise behind much of the "Extreme Couponing" show: if one coupon is good, more is better. However, the reality isn't necessarily what's on TV. Any time you see someone purchasing 150 of the same item, the grocer has likely special-ordered the item just to accommodate that shopping trip. Other shoppers have written saying they shop in some of the same chains shown on the show, but the stores' policies and rules seemed to take a backseat to the show's filming. The average shopper would not be allowed to use as many coupons as the TV shoppers did. Here's another disparity between "Reality TV" and reality:
As seen on TV: It's because of double coupons that people get so much free.
Reality: The store may have relaxed its coupon policy for the show's filming, allowing people to take home dramatic amounts for free.
When stores double coupons, a 50-cent coupon rings up as a $1 discount at the register. As someone who lives in an area where most stores do not double coupons it is always amazing to see how much more I could save if my stores doubled. But, as some readers have pointed out, stores that double coupons typically have rules in place for the doubling.
If I drive out of my area to stores that double coupons, I'm limited to two chains, both of which have fairly strict rules for doubling. The first has the same policy the reader noted above: the store will double two like coupons per transaction, but the rest of the coupons ring up at face value. The second will double five coupons per transaction with a $25 minimum purchase. Neither would be good candidates for an "Extreme Couponing" shopping trip. The trips shown on the show are designed to wow and impress. Regular shoppers must abide by store rules, so they cannot easily duplicate "Extreme Couponing" savings drama.
Another issue that "Extreme Couponing" shoppers rarely have to contend with is finding empty shelves or product out-of-stock. Coupon shoppers know the frustration of chasing a popular deal, only to find it sold out for most of the week at our favorite store. This doesn't happen on TV. Many of the shoppers featured on the show later acknowledged that they special-ordered product at the stores well before their trips in order to ensure a camera-ready moment. They needed large quantities of certain products on hand -- like 150 bottles of pain relievers -- in order to create a dramatic moment at the register. Again, it may make for interesting television, but it's not a normal shopping trip.
Next week, I'll discuss a darker side to extreme couponing. It's something you definitely shouldn't attempt to duplicate.
Jill Cataldo, a coupon workshop instructor, writer and mother of three, never passes up a good deal. Learn more about couponing at her website,

by Rebecca Flint Marx synopsis
The long-awaited sequel to the 1975 made-for-TV cult-horror classic, Trilogy of Terror 2 features the original's knife-wielding Zuni fetish doll back in action, still diminutive and thirsty for human blood. The first story of the trilogy, "Graveyard Rats," sees a woman doing time amidst flesh-eating vermin after killing her rich husband. "Bobby" looks at the consequences faced by a woman who strikes a deal with Satan to bring her drowned son back to life. "He Who Kills" stars everyone's favorite homicidal fetish doll and is based upon Richard Matheson's short story "Prey."

Amarillo, TX - A local man with a gunshot wound is arrested, accused of breaking into a car in North Amarillo.
Terry Lee Richardson was shot Wednesday, after a homeowner in the 1400 block of Knight says he saw him breaking into his car.
Police say Richardson fled the scene, but was later arrested when a homeowner, a few blocks away on Echo Street, called police saying a man had been shot and was looking for help.
Richardson was transported to the hospital with minor injuries. He was booked into the Potter County Jail on a charge of burglary of a motor vehicle.

Reaction was strongly divided Monday among people in Alabama for and against changing the nation's immigration laws.
Monday, a bipartisan group of U.S. senators agreed on a plan for revamping the nation's immigration laws. The proposal calls for increased security along the board, guest workers and a pathway to citizenship.
Hispanic advocates in Alabama said they are happy to see the compromise.
"We are really pleased we got a bipartisan group of senators to come together to say we have to do something and provide a path to citizenship," said Isabel Rubio with the Hispanic Interest Coalition of Alabama.
Gardendale Sen. Scott Beason helped write and sponsor Alabama's law to crack down on undocumented workers. Beason says the devil remains the details over this proposed compromise.
"I do like the part which says we have to solve the problem at the border first and nothing can happen until after that is done," Beason said.
Beason says he is worried the agreement may allow more undocumented workers into the country who, in turn, could take jobs away from those seeking work.
Rubio says her organization would not be for setting quotas as a part of any agreement. Rubio believes the compromise came about in Congress due to influence of the hispanic vote in the presidential election.
"I do believe the Republican party had a serious wakeup call in November," Rubio said. "The second election of President Obama that happened in part because of the hispanic community."
Beason also has doubts.
"I think there are Republicans swayed by other big business donors who have always want to offer some kind of amnesty program," Beason said.
Tuesday, President Barak Obama is scheduled to address what he wants to see in any immigration reform package.

Disposable Underpants for Bed-Wetting
Topic Overview
Never force a child to wear diapers or rubber pants at night for bed-wetting. But some children may choose to wear nighttime training pants, which are a type of disposable diaper or underpants. These are easier than wet sheets to change in the middle of the night, and some children may not mind wearing them. There are many sizes available, and most children can find one that will fit. If they choose, older children may be able to wear a small adult disposable undergarment, such as Attends or Depend.
If your child chooses to wear disposable underpants, here are some suggestions.
