  1. Yes, but the ear buds that came with my Janet Jackson looked strangely like nipples, the scroll wheel got lost in her navel and her batteries just won’t recharge any more. I may have try one of them there iPods instead.

  2. dogfriend:
    Point well taken. Actually, I think I might have accidentally swallowed a couple of those spiky things. Don’t ask how but I’m sure you can guess. But I’m not too worried. As they say, “these two shall pass.”

  3. I bet most of those searches for Janet Jackson and her “boobies” originated in the good old mainland USA. Buncha fearmongers when it comes to the sight of a breast.

    Well, at least you’re all helping my shares of AAPL stock back there on the mainland.

  4. Yea but who wants to see Janet Jackson’s nipples?? Who really gives a !@#%??? I don’t, and I honestly do like checking out women. Just not her, she’s not the most attractive woman I’ve seen. Same with those butt-ugly WIlliams’ sisters. Yuck. But Vanessa Williams, … whoo. Babe.

    (Each to their own of course, your opinion will likely vary.)
