Billy. This guy was riding in circles
around us on a 10-speed asking us if
we wanted to buy some good herb.

Russ is an MBA student at t.u. His |
girlfriend, Sally, serves a real mean

impressionable young people
shouldn’t see some of the stuff they
have in there. It was entertaining in
an adult sort of way. (We laughed at
t the fur-lined handcuffs.)
The clerks said that, believe it

Sam Langley claims to be the original Sixth Street flower vendor. The thing in his hand
is a stun gun. Langley calls it “50,000 volts of fraternity control. ”
