  1. Whenever I visit on my phone, there’s always these crazy ads about Manscaping. Today it’s right under the man in the heavy coat and it says “Get rid of that Winter coat, Manscape!” It makes me giggle every time!

    This show looks pretty good. From what I hear from our Cuban family, Venezuela is in need of another revolution these days. My husband’s aunt is a doctor in Cuba. She’s doing charity work in Venezuela and says the situation is dire.
