(Elway) must feed the clan, be back in awhile
*** Parts: Elway
(Red) #9 - You can forget about your old phobia about prematurely closing
elevator doors.
(Mombear) haha
(Red) #8 - You can confuse the hell out of the lady at the foundations counter
by asking her to sell you a size 26- AAA bra.
(Lynn) hey Mom...how ya doing????
(Red) #7 - You can perplex the literary set by asking if they've ever read
(Red) Charles Dickens' novel about bargain-priced protheses entitled "A Sale
of Two Titties".
(Gary) LOL Red
(cheermom) i like that one!!!
(Red) #6 - You can gross out the neighborhood teenage studs by showing up at

(Red) #5 - If your husband likes kinky breakfasts in bed, he can set his
coffee cup on your chest without spilling it.

(Red) #4 - You can stand very still at a flea market and convince people your
chest is a rare, giant speciman of depression glass.
(Mombear) booooooooo
(Gary) Hmmm, interesting idea
(Red) #3 - You can cut all your old bras in half and start a fad for skull
caps with chin straps.

(susi) I can't wait til I can wear a normal bra again and find out what size I'll be :)
(Mombear) funny Gary
(mauvelady) Gary, the Rabbi wouldn't like that!!!!!
(Red) #2 - You can put on ecru makeup, weird clothes, and a greasy wig and
people at the mall will think you're Michael Jackson.
(Lynn) hahahahahaha
(Gary) Just dye them red or black
(mauvelady) they wouldn't match the Bar mitvah boy's suit!!!!!
(Gary) Well then, you can color match them.
(Red) AND THE #1 REASON: You can drop your prostheses off at the clinic and get your hair
done while they're having a mammogram.
