This gesture is very decent and will provide many viewers with the opportunity to see something spectacular. ]]> 408682@blogcritics.org Sun, 16 Jul 2006 20:06:40 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2006/06/20/112929.php#comment-400877 The problem with blogs and their unqualified commentators continues to be their strange notion of fact and truth -- "an octogenarian concentration camp survivor"? Where did you get this fabrication? Although Mrs. Altmann's husband was imprisoned at Dachau (for ransom), she has never claimed incarceration; so why do you? ]]> 400877@blogcritics.org Fri, 30 Jun 2006 23:56:01 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2006/06/20/112929.php#comment-395827 Bloody good piece, truly. It makes me want to pull out my art books and listen to German expressionist song cycles again, ah those wacky days at uni... Some fellow lipgloss-addict co-conspirators informed me that this work was actually purchased by Lauder just before reading your article, and I have to say, I'm really glad that the dough I spent on lipgloss went towards funding this magnificent work, and thus my love for modernism and lipgloss are fused, if you'll permit me such a shallow comment. ]]> 395827@blogcritics.org Wed, 21 Jun 2006 02:19:26 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2006/06/20/112929.php#comment-395788 Thanks, we try:) ]]> 395788@blogcritics.org Wed, 21 Jun 2006 00:15:01 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2006/06/20/112929.php#comment-395461 Aaman, this was tremendous! tremendous, i say! ]]> 395461@blogcritics.org Tue, 20 Jun 2006 16:57:25 EDT
