Weak End Pay Check

About any girl walking by
Can pop rivets off a man's fly
So what can we do
But make eyes at you
And hope your response is thigh high?*

*Inspired by an elderly woman basking
on Kuhio Beach with "Hi!" tattoos
on both upper inner thighs.
What's next?  "Welcome!" beach towels?

at least her tatoo's are still readable. I have a friend who had a butter fly on her butt when she was young and with weight gain and age it now looks like a dead moth.

My flying eagle tattoo now looks like it was gut-shot; time always offers a different perspective .. . . . Aloha!

Americans, from coast to coast, support advertisements! Hi! at 69 may be perceived as a plea rather than an invitation . . . .

I could instantly tell she was not Italian-American as her tattoos would possibly be, "Ciao down!"
