Reason is the Devil's greatest whore; by nature and manner of being she is a noxious whore; she is a prostitute, the Devil's appointed whore; whore eaten by scab and leprosy who ought to be trodden under foot and destroyed, she and her wisdom … Throw dung in her face to make her ugly. She is and she ought to be drowned in baptism… She would deserve, the wretch, to be banished to the filthiest place in the house, to the closets.
[Martin Luther, Erlangen Edition v. 16, pp. 142-148]

The one pic on that page that featured an old-aged version of Barbie was neat. I think I would actually buy one if it really existed.

It says: "It's possible you won't look at my Live Journal at all, but you should stop by this page and look at every print, the most savory and creations in one place - 72 prints
and very soon now all these prints will be scattered around RU-Net (the Russian net)
warning, intense load (around 14.5 mb)
spit on the intensity: you won't be sorry
let's take a look"
Some nice stuff here - thanks for the link

Grrr ... WHY is it you can't see errors in time? Make that "the most savory creations in one place" (or "tastiest" or "sweetest" maybe?)

Beleza meu irmao... that I can understand and it also explains Darth Vader with the Portugues English dictionary. Not to mention veiwing women through from the inside of a mouth, A very Brazilian concept indeed. The verb "comer" meaning to eat in Portugues, means something else again, on the streets of Brazil. Similar though not quite the same as its interpretaion in the Anglo Saxon vernacular. Ah, translating cultural concepts is a most difficult art indeed. I don't beleive any exact science will be help of much in this department. Trust me on this one. I know because I taught ESL to Biologists in Sao Paulo...
