intriguing: the difference between her real lips and the lipsticked lips are wonderfully endearing. it is almost a sendup of the artificiality of the genre, in the gentlest kind of way.

Yes, it is gold indeed. Golden temple in Kyoto. The upper 2 stories are gold-plated, the bottom one is bamboo or some such thing. Something about Shoguns not liking the Emperor that lived on the 1st floor ;)

Sorry, the story of Sam Q and Ricky got deleted accidentally by my daughter. I don't have it in me to rewrite the woes Ricky feels and ultimately, how he's going to seek revenge by suicide.

Don't worry, you're still my top vote in the challenge.

The concept and idea here is very funny, and I'm a huge f1 fan so you get extra points for that! The photographic performance is a bit boring tho, but I guess you had other things to do than to take pictures. Cool that you managed to get a lock up, and I'm guessing that's the reason you went for the force india rather than ferrari for instance? Hope the experience was good :) 7
