Oops, then I'd better not tell you what I thought _that_ was/is!  8-)


It is actually a re-run of an old picture.  

There was earlier thread discussing it but I think you were away and 
missed that discussion.  


When I first saw the pic it looked to me like one of those "kinky 
condoms" and it still does. It looked nothing like a landscape to me 
then or now, even when the picture is explained...it still looks to 
me most like a "kinky condom" in actual use, and I guess this pic 
will always look the same to me now. <giggle)  *8-) 


When we boys were boys about 10 or 11 years old, one of our older 
teenage playmates used to like drawing pictures similar to the one below.

It was before computers became widespread so the drawings were real
drawings with pencil and paper.

One day his father found some of the pictures and said " Hey, Sandy, 
what are these pictures supposed to be?

Sandy replied " Oh they're just lighthouses Dad! ".  

Nowadays Dad will find them hiding in files on the computers the 
kids are using.  Beware of nosey Dads!    HeHeHe. :-) 

Boys will still be boys and girls will still be girls even in this 
modern, liberated, enlightened age when anything goes!

Toodles,
