News, but not the serious kind
Yeah baby, I used to be famous!

Psssssssssst! Blog Guy, it’s me!
Wally? My old roommate from the Witness Protection Program?
No, you dimwit, I’m The Elephant Man! I was famous when my movie came out, back in 1980, and I’d like some of your fashion advice. I want to start hitting the singles bar scene, but I need a hip wardrobe.
Ah, that empty oat bag over your head and the stupid floppy cap aren’t making it any more, huh?
You know, Blog Guy, I am not an animal! I am a human being!
Yeah, yeah, save it for the chicks at the bar, okay? I suggest you check out this outfit from a recent international fashion show. Gold lamé, fancy eye slits…
That’s perfect! It will bring out my best features!
Exactly. And, if there ever is a MRS. Elephant Man, here on the left is a little number for her, too.
Great! I’m heading over there now to grab everything I can!
Be sure to take your trunk.
Now that was just a cruel thing to say, Blog Guy…

Before I became permanently blind after seeing that gold lame cover-ur-face-upper, I would have liked to know what that second pic is about…
Spin: first photo really does look like a snakeskin covered gas mask. It’s ruining the nice foil/space blanket jacket look.
Second photo: the model’s mom is in the first row telling the woman next to her “She has such a pretty face if she’d just pull her hair back out of her eyes.”
The model in the bottom pic, that’s a dude! Look at his shoulder and bicep tone. I mean he’s not the dudeliest of dudes, but it’s a dude. So is the model in the top pic. The dude on the poster though is a chick.
Ouch! That second model looks like her life-preserver is giving her a serious neck wedgie.
Why is it when I look at the first one I keep thinking of Ned kelly?
That’s my sister????
They. Are. All. Dudes.
This one is a dude..

Hulga is dudelier than a lot of dudes..

Unca seems to think the one is pink is a dude which I am more inclined to agree with these days since she/he did in fact marry a chic..

Mr B, do you see what gender-identity confusion you’ve unleashed among your readers? When we can’t even see if the models are wearing lipstick, how can we possibly tell dudes from dudettes? I mean, it’s not like we can come close and smell perfume or anything. It would be only sportsmanlike of you to give a hint.
MJ…
Bottom pic reminded me of the Juggernaut from X-Men… must be related!
I think some here might like those outfits today and tonight: Wind chills of -15 Fahrenheit today and -25 tonight. I’m glad I like cold weather.
@fwd: Yep. Prince, too. More eyeliner than I ever wear!
@Doc: That is beyond cold, or in this case, below cold.
@ Spin: Your cruel taunts can’t hurt me; I’m under Unca’s “Protection Thingy”.
