Fashion for 2010



For the men we have...penis trousers?!

& if that wasn't bad enough...

What the hell is growing on his head & shoulders?

Why do we need a map to know where his aorta is?

& more odd still...he's got a 3rd arm why?

If you're intrigued enough to see a video...

here you go

Wait...here's some women's fashion for 2010:



Seems we don't need vagina pants...nope, we need bloomers.

I think I'll get a pair to wear under this:



Think they'll show?

I had to end this post with something pretty to try

& wipe the last to things out of our minds.

You're welcome.

I Love This Photo



This was taken by J (while driving).

I like how it's framed so nicely in the car's mirror.

Snow on the distant mountains in the background

& in the reflection on the car.

It makes me smile.

(LA at its finest.)

Buff



If there's such a thing as being too buff...um...this is it.

Apropos of nothing...I had déjà vu (did I get the accents right?) moment at the gym today.

I was on one of those stepper machines.

Not sure what they're really called.

You know, the ones where you pump your legs up & down

& also move your arms back & forward like you're cross country skiing.

It's not a ski machine...yeah, ok...I know...who cares.

I was slogging away with my iPod precariously perched in the little cup holder thing on the machine...

One wrong move of my flailing right arm & blammo the iPod goes flying across the room.

I got my hand tangled in the cord & nearly ripped my eardrum out in the process.

I got off the machine with a look of idiocy on my face.

Um...damn...where did it go? No iPod anywhere.

The guy in back of my on the treadmill motioned to my right & I still couldn't find it.

"No, your other right", he said (what? I was flustered & looking left).

There it was under the machine next to me...under, yeah, like I'd see that.

So, I thanked the eagle eyed guy & collected my things & got out of there.

Happy Friday.

Have a nice weekend.

I would wish you a group hug from the guys pictured above

But I'm afraid they might crush you.

Beauty



I walked by the Municipal Building in lower Manhattan last Friday.

Ever walk by something a million times & never know the amazing story that goes with it?

I'd always wondered what statue was up there.

I finally looked it up & came away with a interesting story.



The statue of Civic Fame on top of the Municipal Building was installed in 1913 & is a gilded figure designed by Adolph Weinman. Standing barefoot on a sphere, she wears a flowing dress & a crown of laurels to signify glory.

Audrey Munson(1891-1996) was an American model & actress, she was the model or inspiration for more than 15 statues in New York City including this one.



The model for "Civic Fame", Audrey Munson, had an even harder & more intense life. At the turn of the century she was a supermodel for sculptors and painters. In some sense that yielded a much more permanent record of her than most of today's supermodels will enjoy as there are literally dozens of important sculptures of her in New York City & around the world bearing her likeness. When the movies came about, she became an actress & entered history books as the first known woman to star in a movie fully naked.

Here's
the Wikipedia article (if you want to know more...like geekhead me).
This woman had the most unusual & tragic life. From the height of fame...through a court case involving a doctor who killed his wife to be with her...to entering a mental asylum at the age of 39 where she died at the age of 104.
