\"\"<\/center><\/p>\n

When all the other men on the face of the Earth disappear and I am the last man on the planet, women will have to come over to my place to keep the human race going.<\/strike> When the ladies come over for some sweet, sweet lovin’, I like to give them a night to forget, full of my crying<\/strike> a night to remember, full of pleasure, and if they’re into it, a little pain.<\/p>\n

If they don’t run away<\/strike> sleep over, I can also give them a morning to remember with a little surprise.<\/p>\n

Herpes.<\/strike> Breakfast.<\/p>\n

After a night of drunken “I totally don’t know your name” sex<\/strike> passionate lovemaking, she’ll probably need breakfast to realize that I’m not as handsome in daylight as I am under a strobelight<\/strike> reenergize herself so that she can get through the day. After all, breakfast is her chance to escape<\/strike> the most important meal of the day.<\/p>\n

Sure, I could just pour her a bowl of Froot Loops<\/strike> Raisin Bran with chocolate milk<\/strike> skim milk, but I want to show her that I’m not cheap<\/strike> I had a wonderful time last night and I hope the leopard print fuzzy handcuffs didn’t freak her out<\/strike> it was wonderful for her as well.<\/p>\n

Instead, I would warm up pizza from the other night<\/strike> cook her a breakfast, that consists of eggs, bacon, and some potatoes. <\/p>\n

I like cooking breakfast because it is the only time I get to wear my “Kiss the Cook….Down There” apron<\/strike> is one of the easiest and quickest meals to make. On several occasion, I’ve cooked breakfast for dinner because it’s the only thing I know how to cook<\/strike> it’s so easy to do.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Look at that picture of breakfast-sy goodness on the right, ladies. You can expect that in the morning if you happened to be tricked by me to come to my place to see my Ansel Adams<\/a> photo collection that doesn’t exist<\/strike> come over and spend the night.<\/p>\n

The eggs and bacon take only minutes to make, but the potatoes can be a totally different story. Sure I could just stick some day-old potato wedges from KFC in the microwave and say I slaved over a stove to make them.<\/strike> Sure I could cut up some red potatoes into wedges, dip them in egg whites, sprinkle paprika over them, and stick them in the oven for 30 minutes at 450 degrees, but I wouldn’t want the mother of my possible future illegitimate children caused by an expired broken condom<\/strike> beautiful woman in my bed to wait.<\/p>\n

Thank goodness for these frozen Ore-Ida Extra Crispy Easy Breakfast Potatoes. Using the crisp and serve tray made out of the box, they take four short minutes to heat up in the microwave, which is the same amount of time I would last during a sweet, sweet lovemaking session<\/strike> it would take me to cook the eggs and bacon to go along with it. The result of those four minutes are some decently crispy potatoes, but not extra crispy like the box says, which is as disappointing as my performance in the bedroom<\/strike> the Detroit Tigers in the 2006 World Series.<\/p>\n

The Ore-Ida Extra Crispy Easy Breakfast Potatoes taste pretty good for something that came out of the microwave. I noticed a slight peppery taste to them, which I’m sure a lady friend who slept over would like because it will help get the taste of me out of her mouth<\/strike> she won’t need to reach for the salt or pepper.<\/p>\n

When they’re on sale for $1.25 a box, they’re cheap enough to stock up on, which will come in handy when some woman stays over after giving me pity sex<\/strike> another lady friend comes over.<\/p>\n
