What Is The Appeal Of This Picture?

Let's Go Bravos!

This is the first time I have published this picture on my blog but this photo is my most popular photo on my Flickr account. I am trying to understand the appeal of it. Anyone want to take a stab at its popularity?

My calculator for VB.net is complete. I just have to transfer it to a floppy disk and print the paperwork. I also have to draw a quick flow chart for my assignment for that class that's due today. I think I'll sign the role and skip the rest of the class to read the assignment for my English class. I haven't done that, yet. Yesterday was a LONG day. I just wasn't in the mood to read my English assignment. I'm sure the professor will have a quiz on it today.

I had a weird dream last night. I can't go into details because I don't remember all of them. I just know it was weird. The things I remember the most was avoiding someone, not anyone I currently know, and vacuuming plants off the floor. I think I understand the avoiding part. I've been avoiding life and people lately. The vacuum of plants off the floor? Now that I can't explain.

Finally, for the ladies: aftershave/male deodorant. What's you favorite scent?

Just not BO smell...the smells in most aftershaves & deodorants make my sinuses act up. I'll go with unscented deodorant.

I don't like male deodorant smell for some reason, but I'll take it over nothing any day. I also hate aftershave. It just reminds me of when I lived at home and my dad would put like an entire bottle on and it just gave me a headache. Cologne isn't bad though. I don't have a favorite one because I haven't really known anyone who wore any.

My dad wore Speed Stick when I was younger, so I associate that smell with him. I confirmed last night that Mike wears Axe. That Axe stuff is powerful. My brother had some of that stuff.

My husband wears speed stick deodorant and he wears Nivea Cooling Lotion aftershave. They don't really have an overwhelming smell to them. I do like when Don wears Acqua De Gio by Giorgio Armani or Creed Irish Tweed, but that's cologne.

As far as the picture goes, I like the Braves shirt, but I have no idea why it would be more popular than the others. Maybe it's because you are smiling and cheerful in the photo.

Take care... and chat soon...

Lemme be dead-honest with you.. maybe the pic is so popular because it's from your rack & up?

I love the smell of Aspen cologne. Do they make an aftershave of that?

Now and Forever,

Thanks Denise & Liz. But to be honest with you Liz, I don't have much boobage to begin with, compared to my sisters, and this shirt makes me flat chested.

Maybe I'll never know the reasons of its popularity.
