Blog Guy, I’m a young woman in my first year of college. I should be pulling all-nighters to study for my mid-terms, but I keep falling asleep.
You need professional help staying awake, I suggest you go to Belarus. See a designer named Ludmila Labkova. She can tie your hair so tight it’s impossible to close your eyes.
Very tempting, but I frown on artificial aids.
You can’t frown at all, once Ludmila tightens your hair.
Is there any danger with this procedure?
It prevents blood from flowing to your lips, turning them black and paralyzing your jaw.
Fine, I have no oral mid-terms. Where can I find Ludmila?
In the capital, Minsk. She’ll be holding her minks, just back from the Sphinx.
In Minsk with her minks just returned from the Sphinx?
With a couple of very nice coats made from lynx, which she bought with a truckload of dollars from Brinks…

A good point, Spin. And when a Canada Goose honks in the Bronx….
If you are travelling from the wrong side of the pond, there is a danger, that you might sink..
When i see shoes and hunky males, they make my cheeks glow pink!
Once I get into limericks, it always drives me to the brink..
Was this taken in the 1950s? Looks like something Loretta Young wore on TV. And with that scalp-tightening do, there will be know winks or blinks from this minx …
They painted her face with some sort of black inks
And rolled up her hair in two buns with some kinks
Overall I’d say that this look just stinks
But I’ll defer to Shra and whatever she thinks.
I
rock
out
loud.
The model has spots on her face,
Does makeup help her from falling from grace?
there is nothing wrong in having a spot
however the attempt to blot
has ended in the model having a pout
and hitting the nearest commenter’s snout…
The spots and the painted on eyebrows are…. disconcerting.
Thanks for the links to the pictures of the minx.
Methinks after today’s hijinx I’ll need a few drinks, so I can get 40 winks, or I shall be going on the blinks.
Would you like a masseuse named Bruce?
No, Sam I Am, I do not want a masseuse named Bruce.
Would like a masseuse in a caboose?
No, Sam I Am, I do not want a masseuse named Bruce, I do not want a masseuse in a caboose.
Would you like a masseuse who can aduce?
You drive a hard bargain, Sam I Am, but yes, I’ll take a masseuse in a caboose who can aduce. But it has to be a she, and not one named “Bruce.”
If you connect all the zits / beauty marks / blemishes on her face the sign of Satan is revealed.
I don’t know much about language, sixty, but I believe “beauty” should have marks like these around it.
In the words of Larry the Cable Guy: Holy Moley!
Thanks, Slick. Loretta Young. Wow.
