    pfft viggo's a tw4t.

    http://www.the-movie-times.com/thrsdir/ActorVS.cgi?vmortensen+gclooney

    as you will note, his career earnings rely entirely on pracing around with some hobbits, and he wasn't even the lead character in any of those films. epic win for me.

    Thats fine my me. Hobbits beat coffee ads imo.

    And i like a man who is good with his sword.

    Don't get me wrong Chewy, no one can deny 'you' are good looking, but i feel you are more a fumble in a lift with maximum smug smile for you and minimum ruffle for woman, or your suit, whereas Viggo would het ruffled in the lift. Seriously and deliciously ruffled. As i think i would.

    Btw, i am not particularly a Viggo fan. I just find George a little smug.

    have you been watching southpark?
    The cloud of smug forms over South Park and begins to combine with that of San Francisco. McFriendly informs us that a cloud of smug from George Clooney's 78th Academy Awards acceptance speech will soon drift between the two potential storms, merging them together to create "the perfect storm of self-satisfaction," which will heavily damage South Park and completely destroy San Francisco.

    I could be quite happy with either George or Viggo :)

    As they could with you Sweets.

    Btw, how do you feel about geeks? There is the sweetest chap who despite his proud geekdom shows really nice sensitivity and warmth, and he is so keen to both meet some one....

    I don't suppose you like sci fi or fantasy even a tiny bit? he might not be as sweet in rl where as I know you really are. If you might be interested even the teenyest biti can pm you his dating site profile......or you can go down and have a look.


    Edited he is an mse poster, not so eone i know.

    So long as fantasy was not just a loose grip on reality... Have had more than my fill of that!

    Can't say I'm a particular fan of sci fi etc but I'm good at falling asleep on the sofa which is some kind of compromise :)

    I'd definitely have a look... Even if just out of curiosity :o Just one question... How do you know them if not sure how they are in person ?!

    This made me think of the Manet painting "le Dejeuner sur l'Herbe".

    My favourite painting. Although I can't decide who is ignoring who. Men ignoring naked woman or naked woman ignoring the men.

    Since you raise great paintings ( and i hope i wpuld not be ignored if i stripped for. Beloved in the woods) did the nice peole know you can get any national gallery painting printed on canvas, and todAy i read in an interior decorating email that you can also get pictures from national gallery, v and a and natural history museum printed on to tiles.

    Now, while i don't think i will have a whistlejacket bathroom wall, i won't say i wasn't tempted i love whistlejacket, I do love the idea of have a few box framed greats to change with the mood or the season. Ok, so a print is not the greatness of the original brushstroke, but i still like the idea. I guess its how people might have felt about posters originally.

    Here is the link to bathroom tiles with art.

    Not for me, though i think ipts gorgeous, just not for me. The lack of symetry of the art to bath would also drive me round the bend.

    But they have a nice white textured tile in the slide show, it just annoyingly does not say where from. They also have some funky shaped ones i like the idea of for a layer project of guest shower room.
