      You may say that I’m a dreamer, but I’m not the only one.

      That could be the tagline of a made-for-TV movie about Joe Francis and his “Girls Gone Wild” enterprise.

      I have that problem of temporary dyslexia all the time. Where we live there is a store called “Frocks and Britches” and EVERY time I drive by it I see “Frocks and Bitches.”

      Same thing with “Pianos and Organs”…Pianos and Orgasms.

      I would shop nowhere but Frocks and Bitches, if such a store were to open near me.
