I know you're all shocked, shocked by this news.

Oooh, easy does it on the metal food group
You will swallow some tacks. You are a little
weird, maybe not so much in a good way. Buy a

When I wal litter my uncle gave me a shirt with this http://www.wishville.co.uk/gorey/a.htm
but he changed is to "A is for Ariel who fell down the stairs"

My brother got one with this http://www.wishville.co.uk/gorey/m.htm
but it said "M is for Morgan who was swept out to sea"

I particularly like "T is for Titus who flew into bits" though
