See-thru skirts? Skirts with panty prints? I got this email at work today with a couple of images (click the link to see them) showing women, fully dressed, wearing skirts, but not just any skirts - see-thru skirts. You can see the women's panties that is. The email claims that it wasn't really see-thru skirts, but apparently skirts with panty images printed on them - and this was an apparent fad in Japan. Well, this is a hoax on top of a hoax. Second hoax: the images are from Japanese porn magazines. They're not some fad happening in Japan. I can't for the life of me imagine women wearing skirts with printed panties on them. The idea of it being a fad of Japanese women is probably supposed to entice western males who don't know better. Whatever the reason for the hoax, it's apparently doing the rounds on the net, and coming to an inbox near you soon (if not alreaady). First hoax: the Japanese porn magazines that actually produce these images, claim them to be from cameras using special lenses that allows them to see right through women's clothes. (Wasn't this in a James Bond movie?) They're actually doctored images of real women in skirts, overlayed with shots of women in panties. So let me see here. 1) It's exciting for Japanese men to pretend that these are real images of women with skirts on, taken with an x-ray vision camera. 2) It's exciting for western men to pretend that Japanese women wear skirts with images of panties imprinted on them; faking a see-thru skirt. Hmm ... guys, no wonder women think we're idiots most of the time. Right now, I'd hate to think what Japanese women think of the males of the species.

South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut -- This is one hilarious movie -- but boy is it rude. It's rude beyond the point of being offensive. The movie takes the good taste filter off and amuses with humour that simulate the juvenile in us. Every now and again though, that little kid in us needs to be amused -- and this movie will certainly do that. If you're offended by the movie, it's because the adult in you is watching. The Brothers Grimm -- This was an OK fantasy movie, moving at a good pace, with the appropriate level of action and humour. The special effects were well done -- and so was the cinematography. If you missed it in the theatre, you didn't miss much however. You can catch it on DVD. The Aristocrats -- This is a movie about a joke. One joke. That's it. The delivery however -- now that was something else. The delivery was sick, sick, sick. This is an in-joke for comedians that have been numbed by jokes for us regular folk. The only thi...
