Dear the Open Salon,

Oh, my good and dear LORD...
Never, I mean EVER, put "hernia truss" into the Google Image search.

Sincerely,
Maude
I'll make a note of that!
You two are funny, funny.
These are wonderful!!!
BWAAAHAAA! I'm posting an "elder love" haiku duo today as well. You two put mine to shame.

Good to see you ladies still "got it" - then again, I suspect you never lost it.
Ewww- that photo has just been burned into my corneas, so strange and scary. The haikus, on the other hand, just lovely.
Thanks for some funny haikus!
Love it, love them. Turn the lights out indeed.
What - no pictures?
Did I not have pleasure of making your acquaintances in an establishment called Cactus Jacks in Memphis a number of years ago?

Dear Maude and Myrtle,
While scrolling through my favorites in a fit of nostalgia and whim or gin, I came upon you!
I beg you to return to OS unless you are deceased, in which case I am happy to write an excellent obituary.
Yours Truly, Alison
