Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

What is even happening?

Here's a picture and an article from an Australian paper: [link]

One poor model (centerish, rear, mostly orange bikini) seems to be suffering boobular containment failure. Might be on account of having boobs.

I saw thighs.

This is what I'm saying.

A friend of mine quit modelling when she was offered a shoot in Milan and they told her to lose a stone. She weighs eight stone and is 5ft 11. INSANITY.

And let's not forget, before KY became widely available, Vaseline was the personal lubricant of choice!!

I wonder if the people who decide who's fat are straight men, because most men I know look at models and go "ick."

nope, it's other women. Just like women don't dress for men, they dress for other women.

Are Aussie sizes 8-12 smaller than US sizes 8-12, because I'm thinking maybe one of those women is a size 8, and the other two look like size 6.

Hard to tell I think. I was reading about the "zaftig" PR model that got Allison booted and Allison swore she was a size 10. She just didn't seem that much bigger than the others, who I assume are in the 2-4 range.
