I wouldn’t be surprised if they actually had multiple such exhibitions circulating at the same time, as revenue sources. It’s not like they only have a couple such statues, after all. 😛

I’d rather amputate myself of 1 kidney than logging onto anything like this!

Preparing the luncheon menu?

I was just watching the BBC channel here in the office…some story on the Bengladeshi typhoon refugees.  
A group of colorful women were in a group…huddles together and casually chatting.  
Suddenly…[b]in unison and as if on cue[/b]…they begin weeping, wailing and in a very dry-eyed manner they are magically transformed into an image of sorrow as the BBC talking head tells us of their loss and sorrow.

Pure BS…it was obviously an unedited live feed that wil not make the next news bite.
