THE YOUNG AND PRODIGIOUS T.S. SPIVET( short 12/50 )

And then there was Layton, my dizygotic twin.

That's when two sperm cells fertilize two seperate eggs.

To each his own embryo To each his own lucky star

Layton got the height and I got the neurons.

Mom! Have you ever gotten AIDS?

What?

Angela Ashworth says AIDS are bad and you probably have them.

Well! Next time, you just tell Angela Ashworth Just because she feels insecure about being a little girl in a society that puts an anointed amount of pressure on moment to the baptism physical standard it doesn't mean that she had to take out her misplaced self loathing on a nicer boy like you.

You may be an inherent part of the problem, but, certainly doesn't mean you have AIDS.

I'm not sure I can remember all that.

Well, just tell her ... she's fat.

OK.
