'Increase your pe nis size' they said.
'But...do I have to?' I reply .
'8 to 10 inches ' they maintain ' to impress the girlfriend!'

I had my personal doubts about this...first they suggest I need this increase and now that my girlfriend can be impressed(something highly unlikely given the fact she wasnt impressed even when my hair caught on fire while I was lighting up the dinner candles)

'We do it on competitive prices and it is virtually painless'
'But.. I....it involves a number of complications,I may need bigger pants to store the new..' I didnt even know how to call this.

'Dont worry,you will be a po-rn legend before you know it. ' they tried to lure me.

'Sounds more like I ll become a legend being your first and last customer' I thought.

I deleted it! The e-mail , the spam e-mail I mean ..about my penis size increase.I had something more important to do, just received e-mail from a new charity organization helping the penguins victims of war.Somebody has to give donation!
