    I don't know why there. He loves Jeep Wrangler. He owns one and he works on it. He can custom make Jeeps. That would be his business. That and sell parts.

    And there are lots of very pretty American women in Florida, many of them well-off widows.

    Using the last measuring system, I'd say the person who has a sexual preference of a "type" be it blondes with big tits or waiflike Asians was a 3 while the person(s) labeling them as "Yellow Fever", depending upon their intent, could be anything from a 3 to a 10...but probably a common 7.

    An electric bike shop might be more practical.

    I used to go there quite a bit for about 5 years in my off time staying with my GF. She'd go to work and take her car. All I needed was a bicycle. The island itself is only 2 miles by 4. No jeep trails, just Route 1, the Overseas Highway up the chain to Miami.

    Key West is where you buy a Moke because it fits the lifestyle and location...



    It's useless as tits on a pump handle almost anywhere else, but a place like Key West it fits right in.

    Yeah my friend and her family went there to vacation. Showed me pictures. I was amazed at how small the whole area was. You could practically walk from end to end in a short time.

    Discuss.
    When used in that context, it is racist. When used to describe the real illness, it is not racist.

    Interesting. So to say that certain men have preference for black women is racist?

    Who uses the word "Mongoloid" anymore?

    I did a reverse lookup, and she is a Japanese model named Sayu. From the angle she was photographed at, and with that makeup, she looks less East Asian, but from other angles, she looks very East Asian.

    Japanese aren't pure Mongoloid either.

    They're part Ainu.

    Racist Pollacks seeking to prove their superiority over all other "races".

    Sayu is a hottie.

    No, but calling it "jungle fever" is racist.
