Hey count me in on that. I have NEVER thought her beautiful. And after the Pitt/Anniston mess even less.

Jane Russell - beautiful. Liz Taylor - beautiful. Jolie? Nope. I just don’t get it. (neither does my husband). Of course to him Lynda Carter was the most beautiful woman he ever saw (after me, of course).

Oh my. I just had to readjust my seat.

The other day my wife was asking me to define the term, “built like a brick #### house.” I will print these pictures and put a picture to the definition.

Your dogs are lovely! I am the proud owner of a minature schnauzer that just turned 1. She is the love of my life and has the heart of a lion. She has seen me through some terrible times and my latest bought with cancer.

If someone could tell me how to post a pic, I’d post her.

I ran across the ugliest woman I EVER saw in a grocery store the other day. She had two kids with her and I pleasantly said “ Lady, are those kids twins?” She said, (overjoyed) “NO. Why? Do you think they look alike?” I said “No. I just can’t imagine you got laid twice.”

Selma Hayek - truly beautiful and curvy. She just conceived a child by a guy who is average looking and way older than her - but I think he’s rich.

Why we’re not all beautiful?

Money. Men pick beauty. Women pick survival.

Pretty women will stay with an ugly man if he has money.

And before there was money, it was the ugly guy with lots of arrowheads and the longest spear.

Her nose looks like the head of a penis.

Actually, the penis' balls look like Barbra Streisand's boobs.

I don’t see any sign of evolution in modern man.

Seems of late, all I see is de-evolution

I believe the reason I wouldn’t defend Angelina Jolie is that hse is too freakish and her recent penchant when it comes to adopting children creeps me out. I’m female, but not so blind that I would defend someone beautiful if they had a revolting personality.

A more scientific look at how drinking beer would help.

The "beer goggle effect", beta, can be quantified as follows:

An = number of units of alcohol consumed
S = smokiness of the room (graded from 0-10, where 0 clear air; 10 extremely smoky)
L = luminance of 'person of interest' (candelas per square metre; typically 1 pitch black; 150 as seen in normal room lighting)
Vo = Snellen visual acuity (6/6 normal; 6/12 just meets driving standard)
d = distance from 'person of interest' (metres; 0.5 to 3 metres)

A value of less than one means virtually no effect. Values of 1000 or more would be needed to even glance in the general direction of Helen Thomas.
