Waiting for Godot (and amazon) (this could take a while)

It's kind of crucial to this blog-entry that you at least glance at the link above.

?


A blurb for a korean plastic-surgery site wants you to know that a woman has prettier eyes, nicer hair and better eyebrows, after surgery.
So I'm not pushing surgery, only wondering about the face on an actress in a cop show:

Do very attractive people have wide jaws?
Apparently not, this elusive thing "Attractiveness" is not in your jaw.
So people getting plastic surgery must already have to be attractive for it to work.

I used to think overbites were unattractive, and small teeth are better, but now I think it depends upon the person.

This goes nowhere and doesn't say a lot, but it's what I was thinking about.

How does she rate?

"Ji Li Wing"


Jillie Wing (playing a guitar above) lives in the "Hills", rich enough to buy several other hilly properties.
She's living the dream, living on a hill and having lots of progeny.
That's the apparently modern goal of money, a hill with a house on it, lots of kids.

There is no dream I know of, of "world travel," it used to be a dream that you could bombast about at parties, and using slides of you waving in interminably long slide-shows with backgrounds of pigeons and courtyards and trees (face it, *you* had fun but everyone else wants to die of boredom)

Beauty (perfect shape)
to get

  • Money
  • Spouse
  • House in the hills
  • World Travel
  • Dynasty

The exact details I'm not privy to, being poor (houses in trust, Cayman-island accounts, tennis matches, horses) and the above goals are middle-class-rich, not truly rich, because for that you need your own company and a huge ranch featured in a magazine or on a TV show.
But (at least for the middling well-off) shapes matter.

(I skipped the subsection, maybe between "Money" and "Spouse", of a car, several cars, one biggie car, leasing,) because it would be like someone knowing arithmetic discussing people who use calculus daily

The shape of an (old-fashioned?) incandescent lightbulb matters, at least to the people making them.

Scary-long, or squat and round.

You can't know what I'm talking about, you'd have to be 6 and be scared of loud light-switches with oversized bulbs. And have occasional nightmares about the dark not disappearing when the switch is turned on (because the scary bulb has burned out.)

Speaking of bulbs, the ones I got and the ones I had before, warn against being completely enclosed in a fixture.
Unfortunately, all the fixtures are completely enclosed.
It might make you wonder "what were they thinking," or not care much (they probably do not last as long as bulbs designed to be enclosed)
I had a blog about LED-lights I erased (CRI, Dimmable,
Color- Temperature, wattage,) being too boring to read about.
I don't know who makes these laws, inconsiderate ones not accounting for bulb-cost and not appropriating correct enclosures, I despair they get paid a lot by bulb manufacturers who don't want their products to last more than a few months.


Dumb me, not looking past color, brightness and wattage, shape and size, I was supposed to make sure they're rated for enclosures.

I guess I'll be ranting some more in a couple months



I swear, shapes mean something to a person, but try proving that to anyone anywhere (although it *could* explain makeup and plastic surgery, and artificial moles)

Everything you ever wanted to know about beauty marks


The psychology of shapes.

(e.g.,) "Haute Cuisine"
