Gettysburg address Quote by Jennifer Echols
““I said , have you seen your butt?" "Is that a rhetorical question?" I craned my neck to take a gander at my backside. Chloe clarified, "She means you have 'boy toy' written across the back of your jeans." "Oh." I nodded. "They're Josh's." "You say that as if it explains everything."

"That's nothing.Josh can recite the Gettysburg Address.””
