Why is my comment awaiting moderation? Is it because there is two links?
I suspect the two links are the reason, Dave. (The rules that invoke a call for moderation are a mystery to me.) Links can be a problem because spammers like to leave ’em.
In any case, I just saw my site’s moderation message and approved your message.
And for the record, I particularly enjoyed the Jodie Foster link.
Me too. Had to show my wife that. Jodie really has aged well.
I thought cover models lived forever, frozen in time?
Is THAT where they go? Hey Dano, let’s look for big users or thefts of liquid nitrogen, big refrigeration systems, cryogenic suspension systems, that sort of thing. Maybe we can find those missing women!
