I am a registered Democrat (at heart an independent, but I had to choose one of the two to have any voice at all in American politics, and I usually detest Republican policies anyway), but I love Arnold.

And speaking of Vaseline…
Yesterday’s post was about Vaseline.
So is today’s post:
A man doing market research knocked on a door and was greeted by a young woman with three small children running around at her feet.

She says, ‘Yes. My husband and I use [...]
