Twinkle, twinkle...little neighbor... Bring a twink home tonight... It's really not that hard to do... Just take that young guy that lives down the street, or that other one that's just across the street--you know the ones that always notice you a little longer and are always friendly, eager to start up a conversation, and basically make it pretty clear they'd like to have some good times with you. And maybe it can lead to way more... Do a radar check--and act, dude!
