The female pylon at the front in picture 2 has quite appealing hips.

I used to love that bjork TV clip! Thanks for reminding me!

Theyv'e been nicking my blog ideas about making things artistic to get acceptance. Said way back that wind turbines should have gull like wings and a cute puppy's head in the middle.

I've got this picture in my mind of a couple of human pylons standing across from each other over a lake, doing a giant cat's cradle.

I was in Iceland beginning of July. We had a great time. It's now about as expensive as Switzerland (instead of being more expensive as it used to be).

I thought we were doing away with size zero models. Some of those pylon people need a good meal or two.

Besides, they're Scandinavians; they're supposed to be tall.

Don't let poets lie to you, there is 'scientifical' proof in a Danish book that says TV's are ok... bonkers.

But you would.

ALL Icelandic people I have ever met are completely round the twist. Actually, that goes for most Scandies.

Why not? We had to bail some of our banks out.

And sensibly, they didn't ask the public what they thought, because the public wouldn't even have understood the question.

Like... LAVA RUN!!!

More like Rollerball

This is fun though.

Well yes, but of course if you look at the sum that each individual Icelander would end up paying, regardless of him being innocent in this matter, they'd be bankrupt for the rest of time. The people who would pay the bill are not those who took on the responsibilities. You can't expect some fish factory worker to even comprehend what's happened, let alone hold them responsible for it.

Anyway, this was supposed to be a cheerful thread about transforming pylons into art, until some grump decided it should be about banking doom.

What a lot of miseryguts here.

a giraffe with a jester's hat would work.

Excellent suggestion. Do you perchance work for ClientCo's marketing department?

[Mich the Tester]

Ah you are right Mich, I mean.. you have never made a generalisation to make a comedy point before so I should follow your lead lol

moi? of course I have

[Mich the Tester]

Didn't they have a referendum which went something like:

Should we make an effort to pay it back or... not bother?

I wish I could do the same with my mortgage.
