Did you ever look at Da Vinci's Mona Lisa and thought, "Nice, but I wonder what her tits look like"? Me too!!! And apparently, so did
Da Vinci.
Leonardo da Vinci, in a Renaissance version of Mad Magazine, may have painted his famous Mona Lisa in a number of ways, including nude. Now, a painting has surfaced that looks much like the original, sparking debate over just how far the master took his iconic painting.
The newly revealed painting, hidden for almost a century within the wood wall of a private library, shows a portrait of a half-naked woman with clear links to the famous (and clothed) Mona Lisa.

awesome shots of USSR punk rockers during the reign of Brezhnev.
A typical Florida public school teacher lets her class vote a boy with Autism
out of the class.
By a vote of 14 to 2, Alex Barton's kindergarten teacher led his classmates to vote him out of class last Wednesday. The 5-year-old boy was made to stand in front of the class as classmates were invited to tell him what they didn't like about him. The other children called Alex "disgusting" and "annoying." Alex's mother, Melissa Barton, says she is considering legal action.
But don't worry. Teacher's unions and tenure ensure that this noble woman
got her job back. Another reason to avoid public schools like the plague? You bet!
What a cunt.

And finally, more of the right's
racism. Holy shit, I just love this stuff. I know that (obviously) people find it offensive, but it's too hilarious to watch these idiots self destruct for me to get very upset. These morons just keep outdoing themselves with their blatant racism, they don't know when to stop. I should be outraged, but self destruction is so funny.
Also, like my new icon? ;P (hm, this icon features some guy dressed like a Nazi from some weird comic book and he's demanding a woman take off her dress... it's either foley or
weishaupt....)
