My Favorite Stock Photo Guy Got a Write-Up
Do you remember when I posted about the nipple pinching stock photo?
Oh, Ben Affleck. Oh.

Take a Moment for Tom Jones
The poor man just lost his wife. They met when they were eight and were married with a kid on the way by sixteen. They move fast in Wales?
