An extremely attractive and well-dressed woman was "bouncing" up the street and I was quite impressed. There are of examples of the same exhibitionism prevalent in Florida events as well. The Keys has there famous Fantasy Fest with a no holds barred approach to having fun. Southern Calif. is a world unto itself, a very bizarre world. :-D Jeffery Smith wrote: > It wouldn't be seen as horrible.
