He’s Fat
louis is a wonderful man. He has red hair and I love him. I think he likes men also. He once sat on a guys butt to help give him more pressure on his rod.

VERY FUNNY ADULT HUMOR! “WHEN I HAVE A B M IT’S AN EMERGENCY!
I took a chance and watched this special and found myself laughing more times than not. Lewis starts strong, loses steam in the middle and finishes strong at the end.
amazing ….I laughed the whole way thru…a must have.
