Presidential Knee
I don't know why I did it, but I clicked on a link that announced Selena Gomez was debuting her own line of perfume. She's a pretty girl, but other than watching a few episodes of The Wizards of Waverly Place, I'm not a big fan.
Still, when I looked at her photo, something caught my eye.
She has lovely, slender legs but her left knee looked a little strange. I took a screen shot of the photo, then cropped that part of it and blew it up.
Is it just me, or does her knee bear a resemblance to JFK? Maybe it looks more like Herbert Hoover, but that knee sure looks familar.

Some Heavenly Odds
Frankly, I wish the odds were better, but I'll take 'em. I'm a little surprised that Lust and Wrath aren't in the mix. The Sloth is probably a little under-represented, too.

To Die For
Have you ever heard someone say "That was to die for!"? I subscribe to a LOT of recipe sites and it's something I see far too often. Here's one that I saw just the other day that made me realize it's a phrase that's in vogue to say:
Here's another one I saw just this morning, a re-post of an older recipe:
What's up with people saying that? Good grief, there are many things one could say they're worth dying for: your family and/or friends, your country, your core beliefs, your religion, but dying for food?
Yes, I realize it's just a phrase and not meant to be literal, but it's a stupid one. There are other silly statements, like saying "I'm so hungry I could eat a horse." but statements like that are just an exaggeration. I suppose "to die for" is also an exaggeration, but it's one I wish people would quit using.
Dying for a dessert? Sheesh, there are people actually dying because they don't get ANYTHING to eat.
It's not something that "infuriates" me, but I think it's just a silly way to say something is delicious.
Saying a recipe is "to die for" doesn't make me want to try it. I'd rather eat just bread and water than die. (and a diet of only that would eventually kill you) OTOH, when I've seen recipes that say "Better Than Sex" (whatever) it does tend to pique my interest.
