    There was a joke about Prince Albert cigars.  

    Guy walks into a tobacco store and asks the clerk "Have you got Prince Albert in a box?"

    Clerk:  Yes we do.

    Guy:  Well, let him out!

    <drum roll please>

    Random rant: I've got this theory that people in the US really love big noses on men, but they don't realize it yet. Or maybe they do, but I've never heard anyone say: Look at the honker on that guy! He is HOT. I think consciously, people here go around thinking that big noses are unattractive, but that's not the reality of things. Tom Cruise? Big nose. Patrick Swayze, Denzel Washington, Harrison Ford, Richard Gere,  Matthew McConaughey, Hugh Jackman, David Beckham all have big noses and were once declared the sexiest men alive, to name a few. So far, every man I've seen on the "sexiest man" list has at least a nose that's verging on large or large from the side. 

    Again I'm left wondering... "People in the US..." 

    Um, where is "here"?   

    Edited to add:  Um, on second thought, "here" is obviously here, where I am, but my question should have been "Where are you?".    Top side or bottom side of the planet?  Left or right side of the planet?  Inside or outside of the planet?

    Complaint: I have been decieved. I have been skimping on CPU in favor of beefier GPU forever now, under the impression that CPU didn't really matter a whole lot. I was very very wrong. I been playing a game, decided to see how many G8's I could add before my camera or sliders started lagging. I didn't think 2600x was that slow a CPU, but this 3900x is ripping it to pieces. Up to 32 girls now, all default loaded, many of them are HD. I gave myself a charliehorse to make sure this wasn't some odd dream. I had to move them closer together, and they still move around in real time. This is insanity.

    With the recent demise of Prince Philip, I remember that using the "Six degrees of separation" concept, I wasn't that far removed from him.surprise

    1) My partner of 13 years...

    2) worked as butler and cook for Dorothy Parker (high ranking US government lawyer & tax lawyer for Al Caponesurprise)...

    3) Mrs Parker lived for a while in the Waldorf Astoria hotel in NYC where The Duke of Windsor & Wallis Simpson lived and she was friends with them...

    4) The Duke of Windsor was, until he abdicated, King Edward VIII, uncle of Queen Elizabeth II...

    5) Elizabeth II was wife of Philip  <drum roll please>

    I just hit 44 G8F figures loaded in.............. I had to rearrange them a bit, as the one line was getting ridiculously long. The last one gave me the blue ring of death while loading, but once it popped in, had no issues moving her into her place in the harem line.

     



    So it was #50 loading in that finally broke daz studio and crashed it lol. Way more than I thought it would be. Didn't even think I would make it to 20.

    ...got better sleep last night than the last couple as something triggered a recurring low back issue I have which makes even the simplest move trigger muscle spasms.  Usually whatever causes it (most likely a pinched nerve that's aggravated if I twist or bend wrong) pops back in place in a couple days but this has been going on since late Monday. Have my heating belt on when at the desk which gives some relief, but when I have to get up and do something I need to take it off . 

    Even going to the Sub Shop on the corner last night was a major journey given how slowed I am.   Fortunately my building has three lifts (just hoping someone doesn't burn something in their kitchen to set off the building alarm, no way am I going to make it down five floors using the stairs).

    Complaint... It's hard to be creative while in pain.

    So I figured I'd share something almost as equally painful...

    The Soviet (Leningrad TV) version of the first book of Lord of the Rings...

    Part One...

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vquKyNdgH3s&t=704s

    Part Two...

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oLevCLNnLmg

    In original Russian with no translation... plus Russian commercials... but no explanation as to why Gollum has a cabbage for a head.
     

    Edit... Aw, only two of my commercials were Russian.

    It is, but I'd gotten confused by something you posted a while ago that led me to believe you were not in the US.  Sorry for the confusion.  Us US'ers need to stick together.

    But even that didn't make her a man.indecision

    I think the big noses on men falls in line with the theory of big hands & feet being indicators of other big things that make men attractive to women.

    I watch some Russian shows once in a while (the ones with subtitles) but even without the subtitles I can catch a few words here and there, mostly "woman" (jhenkchina), and "car" or "man" (i.e. difference between machina and muchina).  Obviously my conversational Russian is rather limited.indecision

    ...Crikey the Bugaloos (old Saturday morning live action show from teh early 70s that relied heavily on Chroma Key) had a higher production quality than this. The composting atrocious . Only watched a few minutes and indeed it was painful.  Did distract me from my back troubles for a bit though.

    Excuse me while I hobble off and get some eye belach.

    I'm pleasantly surprised. Probably going to uninstall wish soon though. They are too pushy and annoying. Sometimes the price on the photo isn't the actual price.

    This is a picture of the board I put under my painting station. It looks like modern art too.
