Imagine my concern upon reading [this](http://entertainment.yahoo.com/entnews/wwn/20030328/104886360008.html).

I especially like the part about them expecting that the “old guard” supermodels to produce beautiful daughters, but messed up the gene pool by marrying ugly rockers. Very funny.

I demand immediate action from our legislators. This outrage cannot continue.

Why is no one addressing this problem? Form a committee! Hire consultants! Enumerate action items! Let’s get proactive - think outside the box! Grab the bull by the horns!

Or not. I’d be laughing if the article didn’t sound so doggone serious… :rolleyes:

You know, the three women mentioned in the article (Laetitia Casta, Caprice Bourret, Adriana Sklenarikova) aren’t that bad-looking. It’s okay with me if they’re supermodels. Honest.

They _really_ don’t like your cleavage.

I hereby volunteer my services to assist in the breeding of future supermodels.

You do know that there’s a site which claims to offer the eggs of supermodels for sale, right? I’d post a link, but there’s some questionable content in some of the pop ups associated with it. Google “Ron’s angels” and you’ll be able to find it.

Ah, just hire out cheap models from India or Mexico. Thats what everyone else is doing.

You know, that explains all the problems we’re seeing in the world today.

Would we have all these international crises if there were enough supermodels to take care of them? Why send troops overseas, when one supermodel can fly over with her heat vision and wipe out targets efficiently and effectively? While being bulletproof? Heck, one good supermodel could just reverse the planet’s orbit, and keep us from getting into this mess in the first place.

But then again, what’s the use of being a supermodel who can see through other people’s clothes? I’d imagine everything would be rather depressing for them…

I think the word you’re looking for is “superhero”, not “supermodel”. 😃

This is the problem with the economy today. Everyone wants to ship thier manufacturing overseas and hire cheap labor. I think we should produce our supermodels in the good old U.S. of A.!

Along with **Lurkmeister** , I will volunteer to produce supermodels at a frenzied pace. **Welbywife** won’t mind, as I’ll only be doing my patriotic duty.

So, you’re saying this is the result of NAFTA?

**Vogue** and I had a disagreement over my cleavage. I am, indeed, willing to show cleavage. However, I am not willing to shave my chest.

Who says chest hair and a plunging neckline don’t go together. They’re all a buncha fashion nazis! 😃
