Fabulous? No, not really. I think these are either well done drag queens, or just plain old scary looking wimmin. Fashion industry has never made much sense to me. Less so with examples like this. Just posting this one for halloween.

Charming how she exploits her kid like that. Not saying that I agree with the war, or any war in general, but I seriously doubt the kid understands anything about the particular one she’s “protesting”.

In fact, go read this prescient piece and then think a bit. Java6 will be available on OS X in it’s own good time.

At my place of enslavement, we’re still stuck writing code for Microsoft JVM 1.1 and Sun JVM 1.4 due to the installed base, nevermind Sun JVM 5 or 6 . . . I don’t think we’re unique in that respect.
