"You know, they opened the beauty salons and the barbershops and the bowling alleys and the movie theaters. When they start opening up the country clubs and the tanning spas, then I’m going to go to one," she claimed.

That’s why when they start opening up things they go to, then I’ll understand it’s time to start to open up some things for us." |
