> Yeah, but the other half of the crowd could cut glass with their nipples...

Probably so (see my similar comment #26 above). OTOH, it looks to me like most of the participants were guys, not half. Like most hippies parties, the women are few and far between, and often not worth the trouble...

To: Always Right

Actually, it was a re-enactment of that day 15,000 years ago, the last time a large naked clan gathered in front of the glacier, announcing:

“Look it’s receding...must be due to man-made global warming”....

Well, I'm sure there was "shrinkage."

Hmm...”Hundreds of exhibitionist freaks perform an utterly useless activity with no symbolic value whatever in order to pretend to themselves they’re Making A Difference.” A little long for a headline but it’d save the effort of reading the story.

You think they want to show off that little frozen shriveled up “thing”?

Couldn't raise much awareness, there, I guess.

That -is- cute. You're right, not appropriate for open posting on FR, but not really offensive, just, ummm, explicit. ;-) Thanks!

Why is it that the people you want to see naked, never get naked - and the one you don’t, do?
