    No. They are very wide of the mark. If you go and click onto the Wickipedia site for brothel creepers you will see a picture of what they are really like.

    Here's something you chaps might find a bit of a wheeze.
    Above are 4 photographic studies of Miss Coughlan. An actress I believe.

    Your task is to allocate a picture to each the following catagories.
    (Lorraine Kelly did this a few years ago.)

    Wife
    Mistress
    One night stand
    Goddess


    I would say

    1 goddess
    2 wife
    3 Mistress
    4 one night stand.

    My choice would be:

    1 Goddess
    2 Wife
    3 One night stand
    4 Mistress

    Mind you, I wouldn't mind a one night stand with any of them .

    Ah. those are interesting. Still though, not so bad as I had originally imagined.

    You 2 have very close answers with the pix. Is there supposed to be a "correct" set of answers?


    I would say:

    1. Goddess
    2. Mistress
    3. One night stand
    4. Wife

    There is no right answer. But it is interesting how easily we catagorise people at first glance. For instance if the catagories were different, say Majors in..

    1 Business
    2 Marine Biology
    3 Maths
    4 English Lit

    or jobs

    1 Executive
    2 Nurse
    3 Soldier
    4 Shop Assistant

    Or what kind of dog they have, or anything, we,d have no problem allocating each picture by intuition and our personal predjudices.
    It may seem shallow, but at least we often revise first impressions I think.

    So looks like I'd marry a marine Biologist who's working as a Nurse, who has a brief fling with Virgil.

    Ok, as long as I get that brief fling.

    Um, if I make a slight little detour for a moment... It's been nagging at me the whole day... We've been watching the sports channel lately, and I've been wondering, what's the difference between rugby and american football? Besides that american football has helmets and padding...

    Other Nations don't require the padding

    The rules are different. Though related possibly in origin, the games are different. Too complicated to explain. If you google them you might come up with explanations.

    As far as I've ever seen, that is the difference. I've never been a football fan at all. I'll go to Superbowl parties for the food and to hang out, but I think this year was the first time I ever sat and watched more than 10 minutes of a football game.

    But soccer, now there's a sport!

    In rugby you run forwards and throw the ball backwards, and can only knock over the man with the ball.

    In American Football you run forwards and throw the ball forwards. and knock over anybody.

    Dear Lord, please let math majors look like that. Amen.
