STILETTO MAMA


Read Tracey's latest column @ Babes in Business.

I read an opinion column in a newspaper this week discussing wives versus mistresses, clearly the topic of the moment thanks to Tiger Woods and Jessie James.

While each and every sordid detail of these two gents' affairs was painstakingly dissected in excruciating detail, the journalist drew comparisons with us common folk and the differences between wives and mistresses.
