The Praying Mantis

This morning on the Bob & Sheri show, they mentioned role models. They said how it must be hard to be a teenager these days because everyone on the covers of teen magazines is so skinny.

Then, Bob mentioned how Mary Kate Olsen weighs like 85 pounds or something and then Sheri said the funniest thing ever. She said:

“Mary Kate looks like what would happen if you took a praying mantis and put a fur coat and some lipstick on it.”

I love hearing it and saying it again and again. You want know why? Because it’s the truth! She DOES look like a praying mantis!
