A Double Beefcake, Light on the Dressing (Beckham alert)

The new advertising campaign for Emporio Armani underwear features an austere black-and-white image of soccer player David Beckham posing spread-eagle in an open shirt and his designer briefs. He's leaning back on a bed covered with rumpled sheets, and like so many models, he looks profoundly grumpy.

Over at Calvin Klein Underwear, the company celebrated its 25th anniversary this fall with an advertising campaign for its new Steel line. The name, our G-rated mind assumes, refers to the steel-colored waistbands on the briefs. The ads feature the actor Djimon Hounsou in a variety of poses, all of which feature his oak-tree physique in nothing but skivvies. Hounsou's skin glows with perspiration. And he looks rather moody as well.

Excellent, yes.

He does look grumpy...but I’d be willing to ‘turn that frown upside down’ if given the chance, LOL!

David’s yummy, but I’ve got a less grumpy guy in my bed every night as it is. Fourteen years and he’s still a Hottie in my eyes.

Lucky me. :)

[Diana in Wisconsin]

Oh, YUM! *Faints Dead Away* LOL!

“Geriatric Slut Ping”

ROFLMAO! Is there a formal Ping List for this?

*Fingers Crossed*

[najida]

Rub it in! (Lucky girl :) )

[Lady Jag]

Any ideas of what might help?

[freema]

Not THAT!

I guess the original members could start a Geriatric Slut Ping List.

There is certain criteria to becoming a geriatric slut. Two of which is you cannot go out slutting alone (you must have at least one slut sister with you!); and you have to spend at least eight hours and eat two meals with your slut sister(s) in one days time.

What are the rules for just being an on-line slut? I always have chocolate with me; both cyber and real-time. :)

[najida]

I have trashy novels under my bed.

[Lady Jag]

Nevermind.

This is it.

I've got it.

Doesn’t have much fur on him, does he. I wonder if he shaves it off like a gay boy. All the adorable frowning and sock-stuffed underwear in the world don’t make up for a fur deficit.

And nothing good can come from it! ;-) (At least nothing good as far as FReeper humblegunner sees it.)

Now there you go! I love the men of that era. They were real men.

One thing that attracted me to my now-husband is that he looks like a young Jimmy Stewart.

[Diana in Wisconsin]

I have dust bunnies and a copy of “Shanna” by Catherine Woodiwiss (sp?) under my bed. My favorite bodice-ripper of all time. :)

[RikaStrom]

Ok, I want one of those!!!

{sigh}

[WhyisaTexasgirlinPA]

I guess I”m weird, but he doesn’t interest me at all. ;^)

[fanfan]

Yum, thanks.
