I give this post 1.5 stars. No where is there any mention of side boob.
Living in a society that allows individuals the right to express themselves is something our country’s founders felt was inalienable. One thing that the internet has provided the masses is a chance to express their opinions, thoughts and beliefs. On it’s face the concept of providing a platform for everyone to share their voice is a positive thing.

Don’t believe me, google that shit because at least one individual there believes that the CLAM chowder and coconut SHRIMP is fantastic. Why the CAPS? Maybe it is because I have difficulty believing clams and shrimp being served in a land locked state such as Iowa are all that fresh.
