Nice place, but you don't want to overdress like I was told to do.
I signed up to go to a conference in Punta Gorda, Florida, and when I told my wife where it was, she said, "Wear the fox hat!"

Both of them are pieces of shit.
What kind of ass provokes Mike Tyson?
And what kind of dangerous rage leads to biting off someone's ear Mike.
