Go to work, get married, have some kids, pay your taxes, pay your bills, watch your tv, follow fashion, act normal, obey the law and repeat after me: "I am free."

"But do you really, seriously, Major Scobie," Dr. Sykes asked, "believe in hell?"
"In flames and torment?""Oh, yes, I do."
"That sort of hell wouldn't worry me," Fellowes said."Perhaps not quite that. They tell us it may be a permanent sense of loss."
"Perhaps you've never lost anything of importance," Scobie said.

You make much finer distinctions with your appearance and clothes than I do. Usually, I'm not considering whether an outfit is about admiration or liberation. Most often, it's just a matter of clean or not clean, new or threadbare. Sometimes my thoughts range as high as whether something fits, but most of the time it's pretty low-order thinking.
Speaking of low-order thinking, how did we get onto scantily clad women as a topic?

yeah, we gals think differently. Clothes don't cover us. It reveals us and sets us free.
how we got into the subject is when I was poking around New Posts and clicked on something and back arrow'd a page or two, saw Virgil's bikini babes and just felt like commenting (more like clarifying). It's late, I can't sleep and just found myself here. Please don't mind me....![]()

I'm not sure how high of life MIller HIgh Life is, but it'll have to do... good thing I have Bushmills as a chaser.

Maybe you should chase it with kool-aid
I never go into this thread, and now that I did I really had nothing interesting to offer. Boredom... meh....
oh and if you want to see scantily clad women, you should all come to where I live... in the summer it is quite the sight![]()
