A made up guy in a swimming magazine that you have to look for (they hide him somewhere in the magazine along with other weird stuff). ;)
Sorry, Gad..you guys are hopelessly obsessed:) Don't you guys know the pool is for relaxing and getting a sun tan? Here's to, uh, being wet!;D
That we are!! Yet among our fellow swimmers, we're perfectly sane....;)
But we actually get tan without suntanning...we usually get more of a tan then we want, Nana! :P
Yeah, normally when I swim then I get tan! But, I don't lay there like some people and try to get tan :)
right. :P to me, that's just kinda, i don't know, weird maybe. Just get out and swim and play and you'll get tanner than those laying in lounge chairs! ;)
