ALERT!!

Anyone with the names, John, Tom and Bill, can not enter!

Imperv theatre.

The Walrus’s dip forward.

Gulp of Mexico.

She smothered the Brothers Brothers

Holy Saturday Batman …!

Dicks may enter.

May become a bit more pervious as the party gets going.

I am impervious to many things, Toms, Bills, and Johns among them. Karens in particular.
