Because that's hilarious. I do remember a local magazine about butts. I had forgotten it until just this moment. Are you saying that the Nick Hook book is about people’s derrieres?

Do you remember how there was a dude named Nick Hook who put out a magazine entirely about butts? Personally I've done an extensive amount of squatting in Minneapolis despite the fact that I've been legally entitled to reside in every place I've lived here.
