Oddly Enough Blog
News, but not the serious kind
Going out on a limb for readers?

Blog Guy, are you still doing those fantasy shots for your blog readers?
Yes, if they are interesting and have some artistic value. What are you looking for?
I’d like a shot of eight or nine chicks with long, shapely legs to die for, wearing stiletto heels.
Are you out of your mind? This isn’t that kind of blog! There would be no news justification whatsoever for a shot like that.
Oh. Well, what would it take, then?
Minimum, I’ll need to have a race car in the shot, to show reflections off the polished chassis and the intricate tire tread patterns. Then it would be artistic.
Yeah, whatever. Can you give me a mix of red and white stilettos?
Sure, I don’t see why not.

Sorry to burst your bubble there, Mr.B…
the girls are wearing wedges and not stilletos…
but what the heck, Shooooooooooooooooooooooooooeeeeeeesssss sssss!!!!!!!
Sorry Shra, in my women’s shoe vocabulary there are only stupid shoes and stilettos. Not much in-between.
Spin: Grid Girls are the other reason to watch Formula One racing.
Seriously, they are the young women who hold the sign for the drivers so they know where to line up on the starting grid (hence, “grid girls”).
If you’re into this type of thing, you can find a gallery of grid girls on the official formula one web site (which I won’t post here, our of respect to BG). However, this is the first race of the season, so I expect to see many more grid girls going forward.
I don’t recognize the car; it might be the Virgin team’s new livery.
@Spin – who cares? I’d say they are models with decent legs who pose with race cars. But I’m just guessing….
Wedges are not stupid… though when I think of wedges, they are mostly made of potatoes…
skeres, I hope you realize what you’ve just done to yourself.
Any photo with gams like that in it is artistic in my book!
Whatsoever could you mean, BG? Have I exposed myself as a fan of Formula One racing? Guilty as charged. I like my auto racing to have both left turns and right turns.
Or, did I make some double-entendre about the Virgin racing team?
Hey, I’m here mostly for the humor, however it’s posted. Oh, yeah, and Kate Middleton pictures as well.
You know, I was actually waiting for someone to take that bait…
Spin and Skeres… you are both guilty of the crime of learning and teaching respectively…
I hereby, sentence you to one mega zap.. mainly coz you should have known better…
ZAPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP!
Jazz… Gams? Gams? Is this 1944?
Did Shra’s taser knock us all back a half-century? Why is everything black and white?
“a” limb?? I’ll have two of ‘em, or even more
Pssst! Shra!
Fire up the Zapomatic 2000 Taser. There was an attempt at education on this blog!
Everyone else – duck and cover.
See, that must have been quite a jolt. Nearly 30 minutes later, Nosmo doesn’t even remember anything….
Yay! Girls with actual legs instead of twigs.
BG – I just wanted to see who would know what I was referring to…
Poor Spin. Here’s a Haiku for you & Skeres:

Do Grid Girls wear Grid Locks?
Are the red things around their waists Grid Locks ~ like chastity belts, only racier.
Perhaps the Grid Locks are their hair styles.
There is an F1 car in those pics? Where? Lemme look again…
Ooohh well I’ll be darned, so there is!
I couldnt zap only skere Spin… after all, you asked, and he answered… you are both guilty…
Just doing my very hard job of protecting you all, you know…its a thankless job…
Wait, where am I? There should have been 72 virgins…where are the rest?
@Malteser, these ladies are high octane. Plenty of horsepower available to keep your motor purring along.
Hehe…
I was referring to the virgin car!
@malteser, oh yes of course. They are at the car wash getting a hot wax!
Gosh you guys… its just a few pairs of legs!!
You and your double innuendos! (rolling eyes)
So cool. I was referring to the virgin car!
