Do any of you remember the Sears catalog that caused such a stir, because of part of a mans "anatomy" was hanging out of his boxers in the picture??

LOL...I remember that. I just pulled out the 1992 Sears Wish Book. I have kept it in my desk all these years because I think it was the last one they made. Guess I need to try to verify that sometime.;)
