[lightbox color=”#000000″ type=”image” title=”” link=”http://lingeriebriefs.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/jjjohn-ddd.jpg”][/lightbox]My father was a gentle man, very fastidious, very reserved.  He never raised his voice.  I never heard any ultimatums.  There were just expectations, very high expectations.  No matter what I wanted, there was always a goal before I could have it.  He was always raising the bar.  He taught me that I was my only true competitor.  His was a perfectionist whose standard … Read More

She certainly made a grand entrance.  One might think it was another royal wedding.  The TV spin has been relentless, ominous; and semi cynic that I tend to be, a bit overdone.  I do believe, however, that the noise is mostly to assure that we all … Read More
