hmm. once had a drink with her in a bar in Paris in the mid 90's - she was definitely holding court. el jeffe wins for youtube of the day.

I think that tower may be the tower now located at the Denver Design Center. Or at least the same artist?

Read about it here.

hi vado, nice find! the way they killed that dino was very similar to anthony hopkins kill of the bear in the edge movie, using the animal's weight. which is not the point and has nothing to do with this discussion, er... yes. carry on. although, basically, he's fighting with alec baldwin over elle mcpherson. i'm most amazed i've been able to remember all of these people's names. bah. but the cavemen where doing the same thing.. i guess the pterodactyl won the girl in the end.

hmm dance a model. i should do my students do that next semester. should be fun, although don't think i could hold my laughter so they don't realize i'm having fun with them.
