Well bringing Current Events into the mix of this discussion.
A certain singing sensation managed to flash her Who-Ha to the public
while on a nightly outing.
The public was outraged.
To cover her Who-Ha she goes to a lingerie shop ( according to the latest
on-line tabloids) and drops $3,800 on 3 thongs and a teddy.
Now i don't know which of these acts SHOULD shock the religious right
more.
The fact that one was seen in their birthday suite, or the fact that a
few families could have been fed and kept warm for the $3,800.
Personally, I am outraged by the misuse of the $3,800 than by her
flashing her Who-Ha
Good Day
