Tyrannical hierarchies thoughout the ages have always supported great works of art and architecture - it's the flip side.

And oversized lens flare, too, apparently.

Is it just me, or does this look to have been inspired by some cheesy Hollywood set design -- Jaws 3D meets Logan's Run, perhaps?

Kach, Am in London now and was at a semi wild party last night. One tall nice looking young lady walked in wearing nothing but a South African flag painted on her top and a very nice set of tight jeans on the bottom.

Boy did she have lots of friends that night. I had to laugh this morning when I found some multi-colored paint on my hands!

Automobile pioneer Erwin Komenda 100 Years: 1904 - 2004

Erwin Komenda was from 1931 to 1966 chief of the Porsche body designing department. Komenda was the creator of the most recognized automobile shape in the world - the VW Beetle...............................Komenda drafted the plans for the bodywork of other successful German cars like ‘swimming car’ and 'Kübelwagen', the Cisitalia racing car, the Porsche 356, the Porsche 550 "Spyder" and was remarkable involved in the development of the Porsche 911...........................Komenda also designed the shape of the Porsche 356, however, as the corresponding patent applications show, over the years the chief designer was caught up more and more in technical details of many Porsche projects.

Kach,

This is work, would much rather be home. But if I am going to have to be working, this is a lot better than where we were a month ago!

Ed, I was old enough to be her Father, so not for me. The other pilot was getting VERY FRIENDLY with her and he did not show up for breakfast or lunch the next day. When we finally saw him he would not respond to questions but smiled a lot. We all have our suspicions!
