H.O.D. Flashback : What Is Cantastoria? by Clare Dolan

We must admit…some forms of insane entertainment were not meant to be as entertaining as they are and if they are THIS kind of entertaining they certainly didn’t start out that way.   We want to sling back shots of Jack Daniels with this lovely lady.
