I imagined his newspaper turning red…with the colored water of my water-pistol. That’d teach Dad for scaring me with that toy snake yesterday.

What a terrific post! I spend a couple of minutes on reading,
and I am so excited by the information I received, by the way
of writing it reminded me this page https://blueremy.net/. It’s really tough to find something valuable on that topic.
But this author seems to be a real professional because there’s a
special style in his writings. I will subscribe to his new books, just
not to skip anything. This post works its own reading.
