This isn't the ad, it's a skit on it:
Head-on, apply directly to the forehead

The 'Whaleback' in Sandwich, Cape Cod is the closest to a British pub I have ever seen (including the fireplace and dart board!). A friend of ours owns it so I'm especially biased but it is great. Very small and cozy too, lovely!

We have at least 3 street parties a year, someone brings a grill, someone brings a firepit, everyone brings food and drink, its great. And at Christmas we have a party where everyone brings a present (no more that $10) and then we all steal each others stuff, its hilarious.
We are the envy of the rest of the sub-division.

If these people really do what they say......
They usually say one thing and do another thing.
Stop doing things behind people back....
Only four months here and met so many backstabbers.
