I think it might be very important where a woman is a contortionist and is commonly seen by others with her head between her own thighs.

why would she go out at all?

Chiropractor treatments.

Okay, I'm bored by all this techno-speak.

I apologize for raising the issue and retract my complaint. What TM said is right, with one slight modification -- tits or Michael Jackson should require a link.

Well ok then.

You are such a trouble maker.

now that I've read through the chatter of the lst day and a half, the only topic I find worthy of another visit is paigow's disgust with the non-matching hair/bush combo. I had no idea that people felt strongly about this issue. I mean, isn't it a given that 50-80% (there is likely a geographical variance in the exact percentage - I'd guess the % is higher here in Texas, for example) of blonde women are bottle blondes? And why would blonde (really, light brown) pubes be somehow more appealing than darker ones? Why are darker ones "gross"? I find this odd. Enlighten me, please.

I don't mind them. For that matter, I've never really cared whether the rug matches the drapes, either. For me, the only thing that really matters is that it's trimmed enough that I don't choke on it when I'm dining.

My standards must have been too low when I was young.

Pink, green, curly, long, short, braided - if I could see 'em, I was in heaven already. Who cares what color rugs you find in heaven? You're there.

That said, it makes it handy to floss afterward.

How does attire for comparable professionals in Italy compare to this country? What I mean is, what do biglaw lawyers and in-house counsel wear to work there?

So, I've been thinking about this for a couple of days. I've seen the below ad on the Wonkette's website, and part of me said "she's ugly," and another part said "she's hot." I have to admit that "she's hot" has won.

But help a brother out. Am I wrong? Hot or not? (Yes, I am aware that -- based on the ad copy -- she won't find me hot, but indulge me.)

I did a deal in Italy in late 2000. The Italian lawyers were alwasy impeccably dressed, in suits as I recall. This was 4 years ago, so things may have changed. For the record, I was in Florence. I imagine places like Livorno would be less formal and Rome might actually be less formal too.

Be prepared to hear very scary numbers in Italy. I remember being terrified by a "400 million million lira" amount being bandied as an escrow fund... (yes, the double million is not an accident)

Prego.

The metrosexuals wear American suits.

I think perhaps pretty in the right light, drag queen in the wrong light. I'm leaning towards more drag queen than pretty. Perhaps its the excessive makeup.

And then you did the math and realized it was only 92 cents?


FYI: Italy's now on the Euro too. It's sad, in a way -- as a kid I travelled to Italy and really liked seeing bills with so many zeros.

Her eyes look as if they are painted on her face. Disturbing.

Do one's eyelashes ever go gray? I can't think of an old person with gray eyelashes -- but I have never really focused on it. Anyone?

Yes. My father has gray eyelashes and totally white hair. He is 78.
