While searching for that article to write this blog post, believe it or not we encountered a different case in which a 60+ year old woman's Naked Gnomes Ordered to Cover Up from just a few months ago. What is ...
Over the weekend the NY Times addressed a question from a 70 year old man about nudity in one's own kitchen, and homeowner association considerations. Read about it NY Times, Nudity, and the Neighbors . Hope your week is off to a good start, Platypus readers.
