Tab Discussion, Comments, and Critiques


No Picture The Masta The Muther F*ing Masta!	#1 by The Masta at Aug 16, 1987 at 4:03 AM EST
	Rivers describes Surf Wax America as: "A total sarcastic call to hedonism, to sing along, drink and be merry. I hate drinking and only do so when I absolutely have to (which in these days, seems to be quite often)"
