Buttock Bras
Japanese women have been turning to what have become know as buttock bras to give them shape.
Also known as ‘hip-up’ girdles, panties or briefs, several top lingerie businesses have been
capitalizing on what some say is a kink in the Japanese psyche that perceives all non-Asians to be
curvier and in possession of well-rounded bottoms.
Angle-Miyuki reports that its registered trademark 'Buttocks bra' is selling briskly while Fujibo Apparel, known for its BV brand,
offers ‘body-shaper’ underwear with firm satin-knit waistbands and tight-stretching material around the hips.
Fujibo said its lines for both men and women had been flying off the shelves.

Seeking Inner Peace
I am passing this on to you because it definitely works, and we could all use a little more calmness in our lives. By following simple advice heard on the Dr. Phil show, you too can find inner peace. Dr Phil proclaimed, "The way to achieve inner peace is to finish all the things you have started and have never
finished."
So, I looked around my house to see all the things I started and hadn't finished, and before leaving the house this morning, I finished off a bottle of
Merlot, a bottle of Jack Daniels, a bottle of Kahula, a package of Oreos, the
remainder of my old Prozac prescription, the rest of the apple pie, some
Doritos and a Snickers bar.
You have no idea how freaking good I feel!
