Go on. You know you want to. Though if you're a very big, glamorous woman like myself, the hair and make-up options are somewhat limiting. Still, you should be fine.

Here's a fun, clever 'spot the difference' game based around this year's Oscar nominees. It's interactive, and all played on YouTube, cleverly using the 'annotations' feature for a purpose it wasn't designed for.
Start HERE.

When I first saw this text (thanks Gaygael) purporting to be written for male managers dealing with female employees in Britain during WWII, I suspected it was a fake, written as satire. But a little internet digging, and it turns out to be real.
It's from the July 1943 issue of Mass Transport magazine, and was written to help managers deal with the then new phenomenon of women in the work force. It's unbelievable! Some of my favourite parts are highlighted.
There is no longer any question whether transit companies should hire women for jobs formerly held by men. The draft and manpower shortage has settled that point. The important things now are to select the most efficienct women available and how to use them to the best advantage. Here are eleven helpful tips on the subject from Western Properties.
1.) Pick young, married women. They usually have more of a sense of responsibility than their unmarried sisters; they're less likely to be flirtatious; they need the work or they wouldn't be doing it; they still have the pep and interest to work hard and to deal with the public efficiently.
2.) When you have to use older women, try to get ones who have worked outside the home at some time in their lives. Older women who have never contacted the public have a hard time adapting themselves and are inclined to be cantankerous and fussy. It's always well to impress upon older women the importance of friendliness and courtesy.
3.) General experience indicates that "husky" girls - those who are just a little on the heavy side - are more even tempered and efficient than their underweight sisters.
4.) Retain a physician to give each woman you hire a special physical examination - one covering female conditions. This step not only protects the property against the possibilities of lawsuit, but reveals whether the employee-to-be has any female weaknesses which would make her mentally or physically unfit for the job.
5.) Give the female employee a definite day-long schedule of duties so that they'll keep busy without bothering the management for instructions every few minutes. Women make excellent workers when they have their jobs set out for them, but they lack initiative in finding work themselves.
6.) Whenever possible, let the female employee change from one job to another at some time during the day. Women are inclined to be less nervous and happier with change.
7.) Give every girl an adequate number of rest periods during the day. You have to make for some allowances for feminine psychology. A girl has more confidence and is more efficient if she can keep her hair tidied, apply fresh lipstick and wash her hands several times a day.
8.) Be tactful when issuing instructions or in making criticisms. Women are often sensitive; they can't shrug off harsh words the way men do. Never ridicule a woman - it breaks her spirit and cuts off her efficiency.
9.) Be reasonably considerate about using strong language around women. Even though a girl's husband or father may swear vociferously, she'll grow to dislike a place of business where she hears too much of this.
10.) Get enough size variety in operator's uniforms so that each girl can have a proper fit. This point can't be stressed too much in keeping women happy.
Tips to live by!

Well, not that she ever did! She was never a slut. That's my bag.

... is a fun site that does exactly what it says on the tin. It's fairly new so there's only a few yet, but here's my favourite so far. Because I love a nice Mom with a dirty mouth!

THEY called it a lesbian paradise, the pioneering women who made their way to St. Augustine, Fla., in the 1970s to live together in cottages on the beach. Finding one another in the fever of the gay rights and women’s liberation movements, they built a matriarchal community, where no men were allowed, where even a male infant brought by visitors was cause for debate.

I don't remember seeing this spoof 70's science series when it was broadcast by the BBC in 2002, but the episodes are all on YouTube and they really make me giggle. Of course I'm old enough to remember the style! I watched them all again last night while playing nurse to poor Penny. I think even Penny was cheered up a little through her drugged haze...
Here's one of my favourites, 'Look Around You: Water'.

... but I didn't know she was whoring out Bart to recruit them! Pathetic. Surely Mat Greoning or someone can stop her using Bart's voice for this kind of crap?

I'm just about to bring Penny to the vet's for her operattion today. Yes, that operation. She's leaving here a young woman in her prime, but she'll be returning without all her lady-bits.
Actually, I'm a little upset about it. Not so much about the operation because she'll be asleep, and I know she's fit and healthy and she'll be fine, if sore, afterwards. I know it's silly, but I'm dreading having to leave her there. She's going to freak out when I bring her to a strange place and then just leave her there all alone with strangers.
I can hear most of you rolling your eyes, but she's my sweet adorable Pen-pen, and a mother's allowed be upset.
UPDATE: Penny is back home, in body if not in spirit. She's covered in her own drool and completely "mad'ou'vi'" on drugs. Shes fast asleep, wrapped in her blanket in front of the radiator. Sister Panti is on duty!
UPDATE: After a long long sleep, she's groggy and sore today (little whimpers), and wanting to spend the whole time snuggled on my lap or in bed. But she wobbled out to the toilet (and almost made it!) and even ate a little porridge. Though as you can see, she's far from her usual perky self.
