They reach out from the grocery aisle in gaunt starvation, like concentration camp victims shuffling toward the crematorium. These are Hollywood stars, teaching little girls how they should look. They stare out at us from the tabloids, bones protruding in all directions. Next week they will all have new boyfriends, and feel better about themselves. |

Dingusjr, Not bad, I got a kick out of it. We can only hope they will feel better about themselves next paycheck. Bobby |
