[at-l] Body Comp

[shellydhale at earthlink.net (Shelly Hale)]

LOL Yeah, know a couple of folks that were leaf/plant identity deficient who
literally ended up with that problem.

One poor guy was just covered to the point he couldn't go to the bathroom
without coming to tears.  O'course being the good friends that we were, we
razzed the tar out of him.  That is, until he had had enough and mooned
everyone.  Man, never saw something so painful in all my life!  It hurt just
to see the poor thing try to sit.  Needless to say, we didn't make fun of
him until he was well and good over it.  Then he was fair game again.  ;-D)
