This may come as no surprise to some regular Frisky readers, but John DeVore—our Mind of Man—is my best guy friend. If I were to rank all of my friends in order of importance, he would probably be in the Top 3. (I wouldn’t say he is my number one, like Elizabeth Hurley views her ex, Hugh Grant, but he […]
Have you ever met a drop-dead, gorgeous, this-person’s-face-could-launch-a-thousand-ships woman?
