News About Calendar Girls Calendar Pinup Girls I recall the days when       calendars of pinup girls were casually displayed       in auto repair shops,       back offices, locker rooms       and warehouses, each month featured a new,       glamorous example       of nude or semi-nude       American women       in risqué poses twelve pulchritudinous females       a year, with sometimes a bonus. Today, sitting in a car repair’s       waiting “lounge,” the ubiquitous tv is all you see       stuck to Fox News       spewing its misinformation       and lies into American brains       turning men, especially,       into dumb-downed sheep. I so much prefer the honesty       of a classic pinup girl, acknowledging my horniness       and hopes for       a Saturday Night Date! ©2024 Carl Scott Harker, author of Classic Fine Art Nudes of Vallotton, Munch & Falero ==>Check out this year’s Calendar Girls Pinup Calendars on Amazon!
