    Yeah, I found the thing kind of creepy myself. Also, they were all caucasian women--not a single Asian or African among them.
    Some mornings it just doesn't seem worth it to gnaw through the leather straps.

    I saw 2 light complected blacks, Vanessa Williams was one.
    I thought it was cool, and found many of the melds/blends of faces among the prettiest looking.

    There is a young girl that appears twice in the second lineup that has the purest, prettiest smile. She first appears as #20 in a black & white photo.
    ...all the billions of faces from the beginning of time and no 2 are exactly the same, amazing

    This one is far better, including the music. I HATE Pachelbel.

    Meh. I do agree that it's an improvement over the first one but it's still a little creepy.

    Besides, Bouguereau was establishment--one of those artists from the École des Beaux-Arts, painting in what's typically referred to as the "Academic" style that the Impressionists were rebelling against. He mostly painted commissioned portraits of rich people.

    Hell, Michelangelo was establishment, and he took commissions from the rich, even from popes. So, too, with the bastard, Lionardo. Bougereau may have been a romantic hack from the Bozart, but I have a soft spot for his women. It is Pachelbel's irritating and pedestrian Canon which I reject -- utterly. It is like all those damned trumpet voluntaries that music-pretenders suffer us to endure at every opportunity.

    La Libertad. THAT's music!

    at first I thought sacrilegious, but I started to take to it halfway through, as far as your stance on Pachelbel, we all have inherent faults.

    here's more:
