BOWLING GREEN, Ky. -- A public display of bras outside a Bowling Green business has been set ablaze.

Do we have a bra burning ping?

We used to, but the 60's called and wanted it back.

You know, I thought i’d seen it all until I saw this in a contest the other day. A breast cancer awareness vibe. I won’t even bother posting the link on this site.

I mean, REALLY?

“Do we have a bra burning ping?”

We would have if the internets was around in the ‘60s.

Haven’t seen much of that in the past few decades, though.

Not in the original “T & A”, of course.

My mom had and breast fed five kids, and she died of breast cancer.

Lies, damn lies, and statistics.

She has been gone for a long time, so my memories of her are warm and happy, but thank you, friend.
