Holy crap. I didn’t realize how much Sugar Daddy Ken looks like Eastwood in that movie.

But he _would_ certainly be able to furnish the habits of Gold Digger Barbie…

It’s not Sugar Daddy Ken. It’s Sugar’s Daddy Ken. I honestly can’t see what the confusion could possibly be about.

OMG, I want one! Unfortunately, they are ‘sold out until June 2010’! ☹  
I don’t think my trailer park residents would “get it” enough to be offended by it. I don’t know if that’s 😃 or:( .
