Who doesn't love a heartwarming tale? Well, how about a story about a group of wise, kind men who conquer a land filled with uncivilized folks and bring them into a more advanced way of life?

She was available . Not sexually. Structurally. You never said where you stood. So the field stayed open. And the first man willing to stand on his square walked in.
