An Unusual List

Happy May Day!!! Today's the day where we put paper bags of dog doodoo on front doors, light it on fire, then ring the door bell and RUN!!! I think that's what we do today... I'll have to make sure I don't answer the door if it rings today.

So I have many friends who are determined to "set me up" and constantly ask me... "what type of woman are you looking for". So today I attempt to answer that question in a unique way. I present to you my list of 10 of my favorite cartoon women of all time!!
