Hey, I resemble that remark, I'm that age! There is nothing tacky or
juvenile about high quality undergarments. And I don't think folks my
age need much utilitarian stuff... I'm sure they'd recieve lots of
enjoyment just perusing the catalogue while deciding what to buy.
Wouldn't you just shit if when you went to visit and peeked into their

Duluth Trading sells a lot of nice things.
The harmonicas are still in their sealed boxes... I've been very
tempted to open one and try it but I want them to remain new until I

around Christmas time because I know a lot of items will quickly get
sold out. I'm already stocked up for this coming Christmas, and a few
birthdays.
