I
Can't Get No... By Mona Lease
Satisfaction. Hi, all!! Forty degrees outside and I hear it's too cold.
Where's spring? I wish it would get warm. 85 degrees outside and I hear

Stray
Thoughts??
By Mona Lease
Hi, all!! The following started out when I saw a commercial - as it
were - on the internet. It showed a somewhat scruffy looking guy
wearing a thong-style, one-piece, women's swimsuit. The caption under
