    Oh my word. The most embarrassed I've been in my life - it would have been mild if she'd only been a weightlifter!

    Adreienne's attributes do not weigh heavily in the balance compared to this lady. She appears to be having some difficulty doing sit-ups but it would be interesting to see her doing press-ups.

    I like the cooler climate, but yes the colds do com frequently. But with hot weather comes the sweating and the rashes. We're neither geared up for hot weather with air con here, or cold weather with great insulating clothing. We're jacks of all weathers.

    we had to hide behind rubber inner tubes to keep from getting shot

    And Miami looks such a nice place on CSI. Even the criminals are tanned and muscular - and that's just the ladies.
    You sound like you have sensitive skin like I do; a person pays a price for all these recessive genes
    What kills me with the Miami shows is that they take shots from 20 years ago and often, all over Florida. Some are taken in Orlando, some in the evergades, some on the west coast. I think most of our criminals are greasy, tatooed and overly thin from too much cocaine.

    Now days I just roll down hill with a bottle of Wild Turkey.

    After he takes his shirt off, he flexes his muscular arms and says, "See that, baby? That's 1000 pounds of dynamite!" She begins to drool.

    The man drops his pants, strikes a bodybuilder's pose, and says, referring to his bulging thighs, "See those, baby? That's 1000 pounds of dynamite!" She is aching for action at this point.

    Finally, he drops his underpants, and after a quick glance, she grabs her purse and runs screaming to the front door.

    He catches her before she is able to leave and asks, "Why are you in such a hurry to go?"

    She replies, "With 2000 pounds of dynamite and such a short fuse, I was afraid you were about to blow!"
    I think that may be the best one yet. They do say that working out will shrink the goodies...

    Ah, but bell-bottoms had a huge advantage - which may not have been apparent to you.

    To attend rugby games, one has to submit to searches of baggage and person to ensure no booze is carried into the ground.

    Bell-bottoms and rugby socks; I could get a six-pack into the ground and nobody ever noticed. Those and hip-flask of scotch thrust deep in my undies and I was always set!
    Oh, so that was what they were for. Remember how long we used to wear them and they'd drag the ground.

    No, it isn't your imagination. Every time you're gone we do a big PM around to organise a party that you miss out on!

    We feel you'd be a bad example to the younger women.

    Go to work, get married, have some kids, pay your taxes, pay your bills, watch your tv, follow fashion, act normal, obey the law and repeat after me: "I am free."

    I think they'll find she's still dead, and the picture is still the same.



    Now I don't know what it is, but I always think he hasn't got the face quite right.

    That's easy - just look where her eyes are. She's checking out the naked male model in the next studio.

    When I visited the Louvre a few years ago there was a crowd of people around the Mona Lisa, and you couldn't get near. I was disappointed until I noticed behind us that the Wedding Feast at Cana by Veronese was on the wall. We had it all to ourselves. In my opinion it's a much more impressive picture.

    Thank you Gilliatt, it's good to still be considered eye candy. I went to a party this week, someone took some pictures of me and it's done some real damage to my self esteem...I swear the chair I was sitting on disappeared when I was sitting on it

    Wouldn't it be interesting if it was a missed brush stroke that caused all the excitement over the years. I was looking at one famous painter a while back and noticed that all of his women have 2 left legs.

    That is a spectacular painting! There always seems to be those few pics that everyone is blocking in the museums...very annoying.

    It's an odd one; I know it's quite popular.

    I also know a lot of men have a thing for their mother-in-law, which is genetically probable, I imagine. Heck, Sigmund Frood made a whole career out of that stuff.


    Now twins....
