Keep the mind in the gutter. Right where I like it. :)
There's nothing like a neatly trimmed bush!
:D
Happy Arianne Rocks Day, by the way!
Love your bush!
I'm speechless.
It took you hours!? What were you trimming with, nail clippers? You definitely need to get an electric hedge trimmer.
I saw those bikini shavers and laughed pretty hard about it. Your bush(es) look much better :)

Cute, you got my mind in the gutter.
You trim a mean bush!
Woo-Hoo! Great job!

Job well done! Oh and Happy Arianne Rocks day!

I like a well-trimmed bush. Yours are fantastic ;)
Hi, I'm a reporter doing a story for the Toronto Star on cardio theaters at the gym. Saw your blog post from May, would love to ask you a couple questions on your experience. Please email me at ploriggio@gmail.com
Thanks,

Man, Ari, I sure do learn a lot of new things from your blog! And the bushes look great cubed, too.
I didn't even get the reference to the "tree looking taller with the bushes trimmed" part of the Gillette Ad until one of your savvier buddies slapped me awake!
(Gasp, choke!) We single, naive grandmothers aren't used to this kind of information!
