If a man comes to your front door saying he is conducting a survey and asks you to take off your clothes, don’t do it. It’s a scam. He only wants to see you naked.

How good of you to admit to your shortcomings.

This has got to be a joke. People just can't be that STUPID, can they?

People ARE that stupid---look who got elected "president!"

Regina.....hopefully the hope and change voters from 2008 will realize Obama's policies are HOPEless and they are down to. Hangs in their pockets!

You're right, Regina -- just look what passes for humor in the Danville Express Express Forum!

God help us if we elect that roving ambassodor of gaffes and blunders, Willard Romney.
