Forgive my ageism, but Milla has AGED. I barely recognized her. I still think she is fantastically beautiful. It could be her makeup or hair, but she somehow looks much older than I have held in my mind’s eye.
Maybe it’s just that her makeup in the Fifth Element made her look deceptively young even all that time ago. Hmm.
As for Dan Savage, he rocks! His column has done so much good for everyone, gay or straight, kink or vanilla, adult or teenager….
These photographs are annoying. She’s an amazing actress and seems like a super cool person and who cares?
Lots of interesting links, thank you – being British and in IT, I’m particularly ashamed of the whole Turing affair :(
However, among all the links, I keep gravitating back to those pics of Ms Jovovich – who is a wonderful action heroine, and with whom I’m equally enamoured!
Let’s see, Turing was gay and committed suicide. He only hurt himself.
Rochefort, the US Navy codebreaker in the Pacific was arguably insane, but possibly won the war for the Allies. OK, he WAS a bit strange, who would have thought to use musicians to break codes!?
Kim Philby and the Walker brothers were all straight. They were all traitors and responsible for the deaths of perhaps thousands of their countrymen.
I’d rather have a beer with Turing and Rochefort.
