Wierd thoughts

A thoroughly modern Venus, dlowan. How do you feel about your make over, Eva?

Yeah, Eva, I've seen both magnets and they ARE fun to play with, especially when you didn't grow up with Barbies and Kens. All I had as a child was a G.I. Joe with the Kung Fu grip, and a limited edition Klaus Barbie doll. You can only imagine the fights between them, and the issues I grew up with, being a relative of holocaust survivors. I almost considered becoming American, but even as a child, I knew better. Hey, thems some weird thoughts.

I had a real weird thought today actually. Rabbit's feet are considered lucky, but I'm certain it's not so lucky for the rabbit. That seems almost close to a cursed item to me.

I'm watching you.

Haha!

OK, that was how I always pictured the David tho - kinda like in that "magnetic" picture, but then sans cheesy boxers. Like a boyish, elegant figure, quite in accordance to the icon-of-gayness status ...

When I saw the real statue for the first time in Florence, I was quite shocked! There's nothing "boyish" whatsoever about that immense, extremely muscular guy towering inside that dome. Its not just cause he's so drastically large, it's the giant knots and slopes of muscles everywhere ... he was like some superhuman-league professional wrestler or football player!

I thought he was impressive, but not beautiful - beautiful-as-a-statue, I mean, but not beautiful-as-a-man. Too bulky. Plus, the sheer size of his leg's muscles and so on does seem to kinda relatively shrink, well, you know, his lesser attributes ... ;-)

Oh. I seem to have missed a dozen of posts or so again, like always. The original haha was about the rabbit's funny David magnets. But y'all added some, too.

Here's another weird thought....what if 'David' was replaced with 'Barney' from The Simpsons? It would have been more real...more visceral...but most likely not as highly praised at the time.
