Seriously, and I laugh as I write this. Not 4 minutes ago I passed a tall, slender, attractive lady in a long dress. A real looker. As she passed by I couldn’t help but notice some very nice junk in her trunk. And I’m not a caboose guy.

The song’s going through my head, reminiscing about her derriere, and I open the iPad to this category. :smiley: :smiley: :smiley:
