What SD said, Wadds. We love you just the way you are.

Well, okay, so there would be administrative costs.

Any input?

If you like the look of having dead doll eyes, yeah, I'd say go for it.

Sometimes that shark, he looks right into you. Right into your eyes. You know the thing about a shark, he's got...lifeless eyes, black eyes, like a doll's eye. When he comes at ya, doesn't seem to be livin'. Until he bites ya and those black eyes roll over white. And then, ah then you hear that terrible high pitch screamin' and the ocean turns red and spite of all the poundin' and the hollerin' they all come in and rip you to pieces.

Sorry.... couldn't resist. Cag said doll eyes....

Thanks for getting it. That website gives me nightmares.

Me too. I still wonder whether Jon Benet Ramsey was ever really alive or just an animated doll.

I think the sad thing is that when you mouse over those pictures of dead-eyed little girls, they revert back to the original, unphotoshopped ones. And even though all of those girls are naturally beautiful the originals look awful by comparison, whereas if you saw them by themselves, you'd think they look just fine (if a little overly made-up). Children's pagents are something I won't ever understand.

It's creepy alright. Yeesh.

Ewww....I didn't notice this. For some reason, this makes it all the more creepy to me, particularly the 4th one down with the caption underneath about being on Dr. Phil. It reminds me of some anime where some demon or something was turning girls into dolls. I think it was an episode of Vampire Princess Miyu, if I remember correctly.

Shudder.

Ya know...it ain't the eyes that bother me so much as the flesh...I mean, 'porcelain skin' now conjures up entirely different kinds of images in my head...instead of anything aesthetically pleasing, it's baby golems fired up and glazed with flesh-tones just waiting for the right word to come to life and gut people...
Oh, and if ya ever take Dr. Phil's advice, you'll end up with a personality that is just the right fit for those pics.

BTW, Rigel...I don't need a letter to my boss...but how are your wife-persuading rhetorical skills?

Not a good question to ask a divorced man

I can convince any man's wife to quit associating with me

The first checks just arrived in the mail today. Thus begins the first of many thanks that I will be posting. I'm not sure if I should post names or anything, since I guess some of y'all just PM'd Jenn instead of posting public.

So, #1 &#2, thank you very, very much. My first children will be named after the both of you.
