Still waing for an answer. Does anybody know if he managed FRANZ restaurant in Toronto?
here comes my 19h nervous breakdown
Did this Oliver Killeen ever manage Franz restaurant, on Yonge street, in Toronto?
"Kileen, now 75 years old..." That's probably not his real age, that's probably how old he looks after 19 wives. I imagine his real age is 35.
"When you're as good as me, they can't keep away"...omg, gag me! I would advise Mr. Kileen to take a look in the mirror...he's one homely guy!...ew, I shudder! Can't imagine any woman wanting to be with that..still gagging!
Oh badolan - you said it so correctly! The abs are in there alright, just hiding behind all of that tummy blubber! chengisk - It can only be considered polygamy if all of the 19 women knew each other and lived under the same roof! They would then be called "sister wives" and with all of those eyes keeping an "eye" on the family finances, there would be no way for him to get away with check kiting.
He's just lucky he didn't live in Texas. Some ole gal would have neutered him a long time ago.
yrrab24 | Mar 07, 2012, 10:56 AM EST "Remind me again why it is the governments business who and how many I marry?" You make a good point. Now that governments, be they state or national, are withdrawing restrictions on who can marry, it is quite ludicrous that anti bigamy laws should remain unreformed. I can see that property questions may enter into it, but a simple reform would be to say that the first married is the one who has inheritance rights. Government should stay out of the bedroom.
No wonder the women can't stay away from him. What a hottie! Just check out those abs.
Ah, Sweeney Todd ú have it right. A glutton he must be. For surely one is hard enough. No time fora cupa tea.
Any man can have 'Issues' with just one wife, I can't imagine what this lad has gone through, he must be a glutton for punishment. Probably needs some professional help, don't you think?
His '' 19th' Nervous Breakdown , he must be fond of wedding cake , one is too many but for effs sake, 19 ?
SInce when is 19 "Bi"gamy. He must to be charged for polygamy, charged 18 times for it and must pay restitution to all the 19 women.
Remind me again why it is the governments business who and how many I marry?
@Murph46. You've got that right, mate.
