He was obviously a fan of the standard "whore" costumes worn by most college girls...French maid, bunny, sexy nurse sans blood, etc.BeckEyehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00119780316809151433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27540291.post-14611729647310832252008-07-01T12:55:00.000-04:002008-07-01T12:55:00.000-04:00WP, they are delicious.

And the eldest says thanks for the compliment.<BR/><BR/>Vikki, they are saltier and crunchier and nearly as satisfying.

I've only ever seen them served in Mississippi and Louisiana.<BR/><BR/>Ten, cool. Ask him!<BR/><BR/>Dr MVM, thank you! I'm very proud of them both. And that catfish was really good.

When it gets around this time of year I can't fly enough flags.
