Perhaps it should have read, "how to be a GILF".

jingl You are right!

BTW, is anyone else getting an "oops" message when they click on inbox?

Thanks Cari but I'm still getting the "oops" message.

It doesn't help that when I see it I start hearing the Tena lady song!

PS. In my head, I don't mean that I actually hear it coming from my computer.
