Well, he has taste when it comes to his hair, and taste in music...what happened to his taste when it came to women! That woman is so gross, and her face is totally lopsided.

As I said, metrosexuals aren't really gay, they're just close.

I bet he spends more time doing his hair than most women.

Than most women do, or than doing most women?

Was that big-eyeshade picture of Katie taken on November 3rd, the day she went into mourning and wore black and frowned mightily till her face almost doubled in length because W was hoisted to new heights as a popularly-elected president?
