CRAZY OLD NAKED LADY ALERT

Merde in France covers Yoko Ono’s plan to nude it up in Paris -- a plan Yoko elaborated upon last week in Libération:

Some of us have gone to Palestine to be human shields. This gester has touched me deeply. If we could all do as much without machine gunning each other... I immediately thought of joining them. I almost did.

The world then learned of the death of Rachel Corrie. She took a stand, in all of our names.

Technically, I don’t think we can describe what Corrie took as a “stand”.

i'll do whatever it takes to stop her from getting naked. stop the madness!!

The only thing that would stop this from being a real work of art is that she won't be covered in vomit. Now if someone were to vomit on her she just might have something there. I vote for Michael Moore.

A great way for her to get the attention she believes is her due.

I wish someone would explain to me the correlation between taking off clothes and 'world peace'. How does one influence the other?

people will be so busy barfing that they will be unable to kill eachother

Just give war a chance. Especially if a naked Yoko Ono is the price of peace.

Couldn't we just get her to lie down in front of a bulldozer?

This gester has touched me deeply

Perhaps she meant "jester".

Yoko Ono naked? Bet that looks like she has Ted Kennedy in the leg scissors.

The great lie in repeated minus a dung beetle.

The Beatles were full of trite rot as the banal lyrics of their muzac attests.Far from profound, infantile sums up the merits of their content-less pulp.

I hear she has so much hair under her arm she looks like she's got buckwheat in a headlock.

Bit slow off the mark, Timbo- I had a post on this last Thursday, complete with pictures and a way to avoid this horror.

Sorry, Bicko -- been away from computers a lot since Thurs.

What is this - the Yoko Ono oneupmanship contest?

Posted by: pooh at September 16, 2003 at 02:11 PM

Jeez Blair, you catch oldbagitis down in Victoria? Margo, Anne Summers and Yoko Ono in successive posts, then Margo again, followed by Gore Vidal and someone mentioned Granny Greer in the comments. Hope Trish Anderson is under 50.

Victoria was the Joan Kirner State just three Premiers ago.
