[pct-l] Sugar Moma & Sugar Daddy...was Hiking Disorder

[Reinhold Metzger]

Now, Now, Now,  Sugar Moma....I mean patti,...relax and come to Sugar Daddy.
You are not doomed, there is hope...this is typical behavior by those 
suffering from this dreadful disorder.
Sugar Daddy,....I mean Dr. Reinhold, will nurse you back to health.
