Press conferences going Japanese

Following the shoe incident with Bush in Iraq, press conference organizers are thinking of instituting new rules and manners. All participants will be asked to take their shoes off and wear paper-thin slippers. The measure is expected to improve the hygiene and ambience of the press room and make everyone relax and feel more comfortable.

Initially the idea was to ask participants to tie their shoes and hang them on power lines and phone wires outside the venue to give it western-style semantics but the fear this could be interpreted as a gangs-in-town sign or a drug dealer's marking made everyone revise and adopt symbolism-neutral Japanese manners on room hygiene.

I guess the most symbolic and heard-out-loud kind of peaceful protest to a future Bush-style US president, might be to hang shoes from power lines and telephone poles everywhere in town so that the message is visible from everywhere no matter what route the presidential motorcade will take to get in and out of town. It will be a spectacle to remember and the number of shoes hanging in protest a new Guinness world record countries will compete in!

The Perfect Woman!

When you see sexy women pole-ironing, don't thoughts of 'The Perfect Woman' inevitably come to your mind? I don't think we can ever escape imagining about the ideal woman and what she is like. The woman on this photo definitely combines some practicality and the skill to please her man with her moves, not bad I think. We should never underestimate the skill of some women to convert the most tedious and boring daily tasks into very sexy and pleasing experiences! :)
