Tased and confused?

Okay fashion show staff, what the hell went wrong today?
Judging from the pictures of our presentation, the models were confused about which way to go, so they just stood there looking perplexed. The runway route must not have been made clear. Lamar, I blame you.
Jeez, boss, if you look at this wide-angle shot you’ll see we marked the runway with thick black and white stripes. All they had to do was follow a straight line, then turn around and follow it back!
Well, I guess that wasn’t obvious enough, Lamar. What about that idea of leaving bread crumbs for them to follow?
Remember boss, models are always starving. They ATE the breadcrumbs instead of following them.
So I guess we go to Plan B then, where they just walk off the end of the runway. Lamar, go out for a supply of bubble wrap. Lots of it…
You got it, Boss. The expensive bubble wrap, or the cheap kind?
The cheap kind, Lamar. We’re not using any big-name models today…

God, it seems, is an art critic, too.

No one ever went bankrupt underestimating the taste of the American public.

The second one is an optical illusion… isnt it…
The addition of the colorful arm weights to keep them from blowing over in the air conditioning is so thoughtful. Kind of ugly; but thoughtful.
Dress is nice.

So are we to assume millions of women will be wearing these outfits this summer?
This isn’t about American taste, gents, it’s in Sao Paulo. Dunno what Brazilians call fashion…
@Spinster – that’s where those spike heels come in handy. Too bad we don’t have a picture of their footwear – climbing boots with spike heels – fascinating.
E (and all OEers):
Happy Bloomsday!
Shoes?? No shoes.. :’(
Geez, Doc. You’re hard on my puny brain this morning. Just had to read about the tacky statue; an then I had to look up Bloomsday. Where will it all end!
Just a second, Onedoor… This blog is supposed to offer protection from brain work, and it’s a nice coincidence that the headline even mentions tasers. This looks like a job for Shra…
Onedoor, Bloomsday is, ahem, June 16th.
Tase away, Shra!
Shra, are you positive you will be able to spend most of your new job surfing the blog and making timely comments?
Onedoor, some of my relatives seem to think that I’m a smartass. That seems impossible, doesn’t it?
I surely hope so… else I have no idea how I am gonna survive….:(
One,no more learning…this is just in case you do.. zappp!!!
Doc, you are smart…not sure if you are an “ass” though…
Part of me sort of likes the arm things. Sorry.
Not to be sorry, CrowGirl! Actually think they would be fun to wear. Well, when I am not being my mean evil self as that requires wearing black…
Doc, if your relatives are giving you grief, remind them they are related. Then take away their donuts. Good to keep my brain engaged, puny or otherwise. Had the perfect spot for the statue – outside the Tacky Room. You know, the one with the black velvet Elvis paintings?
If you like smartasses, join the OE Blog Network and send a donkey to college.
Francis the Talking Mule and Mr. Ed were roommates. Think they were into sports – horse basketball…
You are correct Spin… thanks for pointing that out…
Zaapp… Doc! Behave now!
Vohoo… just when I thought no more zombies.. LOL
I miss Sarabelle. Waht have you done with her, Bob?
I miss her, too. I heard from her a couple of days ago. She is alive and well, but taking care of some personal stuff. She said she’ll be back here soon.
Thanks, Bob.
My friend got platinum coloured lenses… she looks scary… but somehow she also looks nice….
BG, I cant think what is scary and good these days… should I say thanks to your “fashion” blogs…? I think… NOT!
Unca,… my zapper battery is charging… will zap ya soon, if ya still need it….
