Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
I wonder if Barbara is uncomfortable sitting next to women in low-cut shirts, because even without much of a cover once nipple is in baby mouth you're not seeing much more than with a v-neck -- just differernt breast positions.
