People are the same.” Your word picture is even better, since pizza and apples are far more removed than a rose from a tulip.Anthonyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07736104090174030757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5036521702998354058.post-19133335932886921042012-04-17T13:23:50.609-07:002012-04-17T13:23:50.609-07:00Okay but let's at least admit, while it's ...Okay but let's at least admit, while it's the imperfections and differences that make a woman beautiful, they do look better in heels! ;-)Timnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5036521702998354058.post-85302022617855379942012-04-14T17:06:44.955-07:002012-04-14T17:06:44.955-07:00Thanks Christine.

I'm glad there are many places where this message is conveyed -- though I wish there weren't so many places where the opposite message is blared. There's one acne product ad that slays me every time I hear that discusses "less than perfect skin" -- Less than perfect?! Is that the only thing that is good enough, perfect? Ridiculous. <br /><br />(PS Sorry for the slow posting of your comment.

(oddly, while reading this, I was hearing Christina Aguillers singing "Beautiful" in my mind) And, I have to say, your business idea would probably be a huge success. You'd have to hire help, and franchize!Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06482385229105190471noreply@blogger.com
