Sickening. This gives young girls an unrealistic idea of what their bodies should look like. If she were blown up into life-size proportions, her dimensions would be 46"x45"x44", judging by the slight taper.
Not sexy. I don't care what the message is, if this objet d'art is supposed to evoke sex it's a failure. With or without the nude a wine bottle is not sexy. No woman shaped like a wine bottle is sexy. However a wine bottle shaped like a woman... that's a different story.
I got a chuckle out of the juxtaposition on the female image imposed onto the phallic form, but is it art? When the glass breaks, and we are left with just fragments will we wonder how the finished work looked, much as we do the Venus de Milo? Or will we sweep up the pieces, and through them out in the dust bin, to eventually wind up on the trash heap of other failed and pretentious art?
I grant that it maybe art, to someone somewhere, but it is not ART! as DaVinci, or Buonarroti, or even Pollack level. No insights were offered, no lifting of spirit, much like a "Twinkie" cannot be considered good food, it tickles the pallet, but does not satisfy, rather leaving the taster wanting.
Seriously, the ad should have had the usual "closed course, do not attempt" disclaimer for all the people who might plan to visit Detroit only to be mugged, raped and murdered.
The great Uniter, also known as the SCOAMF, or by me as the Angry Sock Monkey, is trying to unite Americans by forming the African Americans for Obama group. Because forming a group based solely on a persons skin color is the quickest and best possible thing an American President can do.
Unfortunately for our Dear Leader, he is unqualified to join by dint of his white mother. Michelle opined that for the first time she was disappointed in her country, again.
Meanwhile, the Anglican Commission on Global Man-made Global Warming is due to release a new report about how they just need a few more years, and several billion dollars more to prove that AGW does indeed exist, no matter what those inconvenient thermometers say, and no matter how long they say it. The actually report won't be released until the Commission has a chance to dig out from the record snowfall they have experienced in Europe these last few weeks.
In other news, Darth Vader Ginsberg, errr, I mean Ruth Bader Ginsberg, took a pee on the American Constitution, in front of a crowd of Egyptian Muslims. Reached later for comment she wished that she had a "a glass and a crucifix available" to show the Brotherhood what freedom of religion really meant.
Mimi was a hottie back in the day. A clear brow, fair skin, and a winsome smile... I'd a done her(except for being 3 at the time.
I've got to say though, that I really don't care if some politico is banging interns in the oval orifice. As long as the little ingenue's were willing, and of majority, if some pol wants to spit on EVERY vow he makes it just confirms more and more my low esteem of them.(which right now hovers just below maggot level). And I really hate maggots, but at least they perform a needed function. Disposing of dead carcasses. Politicians, on the other hand, ARE brain dead carcasses.
Truth is seeping out into the news media everywhere.
A Lt Col. acknowledges that the tactical situation in every part of Afghanistan is abysmal. The insurgents and not the US forces hold every place in the country beyond the eyesight of US bases.
Which has been obvious to any one with eyes and brains for the last 8 years...Bush years and Obama years.
Oops. Sorry about that all you dead guys. Maybe it was great training for the military survivors of the daily IEDs and ambushes every day for the last 3000 worthless days.

The Matas Zetas are a group claiming to be family members of people killed by the Zetas in their continual quest for drug funded criminal state, have begun a campaign of retaliation against the Zetas, going so far as to even behead some Zetas, and broadcasting the executions via website.
A mexican rancher, Don Aleyo, was told to evacuate his ranchero because the Zetas wanted it for their narco-trafficing. The Don, a proud man, sent his workers home, for the weekend, and gathered all his weapons, and ammunition, and set up his house to withstand a seige. The next morning trucks Full of Zetas rolled up, not expecting any opposition. The Don defended his property so well the Zetas finally had to resort to handgrenades. Of course the Mexican government could not get involved in this situation.
The Don died in the handgrenade assault, but he was able to take 6 Zetas to Valhalla to serve him, and it is suspected that he injured more. Hopefully, all those died too, so the Don can have a decent sized entourage.
I suspect that our country, with the dearth of spineless bureaucrats we have, and the open borders insanity propagated by these same spineless drones, will be heading done this same road.
Too many of our people, Americans, don't see themselves as Americans, and why should they. They are encouraged to keep their culture, and stay in their own enclaves of "Little (name your old country)"
But I shouldn't write these things on a Public forum because that sort of thing is frowned on in Obama's America.
The city of Dearborn Michigan was fined $100,000 because the police arrested a Christian Minister who was passing out fliers during Dearborns' Muslim Days(also known as Shariafest). The Mayor of Dearborn went so far as to claim that the minister "hated" muslims. I guess that makes it a hate crime.(never liked hate crimes because it requires the accuser to be clairvoyent)
In a non-Obama country, the DOJ would have been trying to stop Dearborn from quashing peoples 1st amendments rights. I guess that ship has sailed.
After reading a report about the Syrian Army falling apart I have a little hope. Assad relies on the Sunni majority for its army personnel needs, and they are deserting rather than fire on their fellow Sunni civilians. A Syrian general as let it be known that 1/3 of the Syrian Army is not capable of any action because of the desertions.
When the SHTF here, I would hope the American soldier remembers his duty to not follow illegal orders if commanded to fire on American citizens. Or to imprison them. Or try to deprive them of their constitutional rights.
Of course, Queen Janet has already stated that returning soldiers should be considered terrorist anyway.
But that's Obamas America for you.
Ps. I'm glad he finally has acknowledged that he is constrained by the constitution from doing some things. I can't imagine what though, he's shit on everybodies rights so far. I think I'll make a list , because the Dummiecrats will accuse me of being a "racist"
Sorry for the double post but I don't know what happened.
Anyway, what I said somewhere in the ether, to everybody and to nobody, as it appears, is ...
This Lady in a Bottle is an affront to womanhood! It cannot stand. She must be released from her bottle and eventually released from her glass box prison.
Oh man, now I'm having that déjà vu thing happening again really hard.
How many fluid ounces does that bottle actually contain? I'll bet if the nude was reclining you'd see that the bottle is in fact a cleverly designed sex toy.

I get the message, but looking at that wine bottle, I am confused as to where to put my lips!
Trey
Chilled?
The message seems to be that it takes a bottle of wine to get a woman naked.
No waist, no hips.
I'll bet she has no flavor, either; right, peter?

Work on it a while.
This must be the place. The hall of the mountain king, high up on the mountaintop, naked to the world, in front of every kind of girl.
...came a lady! She whispered in my ear something crazy.
You already know the chorus of this all-time great tune.
What does that mean? Am I going crazy crazy crazy or is this a dream?
wv: "winelluc". Seriously!
Now we know how little Ingemar got his penis stuck in a bottle.

Yes, but I want the massage.
That's my last Duchess painted on the wall,
Looking as if she were alive.
-Browning
The message in the bottle reads:
It was a fairly droll prank
To steal my clothes from the riverbank.
Great song DJ, one of my favorites from back in the day.
Trey
... you get the message.
That it is a 'full bodied' wine?
wv: 'prize' Do I win a prize for my comment?
Is the message that the wine inside is unadulterated?
That would make it come from old growth vines bottled before the 1960s.

Are the nipples 3-D?
I'm offended that the nudity is confined to that bottle.
"Wine, women, and song" is how it goes in English, or "Sex, drugs and rock and roll" is a modern variation of it.

Christ almighty. The Hideous Pedophilic Bald Eagle is everywhere :(
The Bottle
I met a man perched on a bottle
With a woman deep inside,
Rising slowly up towards him,
Floating on the tears he cried.
Said he, ‘It’s only tears can save her,
Tears of sorrow, tears of pain.
I’m going to have to feel a lot,
Until I have her back again.’
All sniffling and snuffling,
He said, ‘It almost makes me laugh
To think that if you weep enough
A man can find his better half.’
- Michael Leunig CD Billy the Rabbit
That this piece of art can be out there on display is a great example of American Free Peach.
That's an ugly bottle.
Must be a Brazilian wine.

How did women lose their pubic hairs in artistic representations? She's got nipples.

Is that Paul Gates droning on in the background?
Where did they stick the label?
To sell wine by the bottle, aren't labels needed?
Was this just an empty bottle that using air-brushing techniques, an artist just painted? Heck, he didn't even sign the darn thing.
Sure. If you saw the bottle you might just buy it, anyway. But this looks fake as merchandise.

Old Japanese Saying...
First Glass - Woman drinks wine
Second Glass - Wine drinks wine
Third Glass - Wine drinks woman
The artistry on that bottle is lovely, as is the unclothed feminine form.
Both should be appreciated for what they are, without the veneer of political correctness.
What is she? In chemotherapy? When did the female become the infant?
- Old School.
never liked hate crimes because it requires the accuser to be clairvoyent
I get your point, but all they or witnesses need is normal hearing, at least in some cases.
I was going to make a comment about the ummm...taste of the wine at the bottom of the bottle, but I've decided it's too uncouth.
