i worked at VS when it launched. got to go to the regional kickoff meetings and everything. and yes, that bergamot note was on the original sales card, along with peach, cherry, and apple...
Love spell was a CLASSIC hoochie fragrance. Reminds me of sitting on the bleachers in some low rise jeans! My gateway to bergamot notes.

that jeff kent thing is such a specific tailored insult to barry bonds, it boils my blood.

bonds was the absolute picture of grace at rickwood while openly mourning his godfather, and this is how he's repaid. he should tell them all to fuck off.

Harlow's still here
Fifty years ago, Harlow was the queen of Philadelphia nightlife, Jack Kelly’s girlfriend, and the city's most famous transgender woman. Today, she’s ready to tell her story.

every city has a cursèd corner - iirc @actioncookbook.com did a newsletter on this? - and after many years of fallow after a series of failed restaurants, they're giving an oil change place a try on ours. good luck.

the commercial with drake maye's baby-faced self talking to the kid where maye goes "boats are a depreciable asset" and the kid hits him with "i don't DEPRECIATE the way you're talking to me right now!" tickles my pun-loving tax lawyer heart so deeply.

i gotta say, even after all these years, it is so weird to this mid-size VA public college grad to see JMU this prominent in big time sports. i am not sure they even had a fight song in 1998 when i moved to the I-81 corridor.
