Strandbeest

I just had to share this with you. It's fantastic. I wonder if this might evolve into a new form of transportation or more realistically a beach side fun ride.  "Dutch engineer/artist  Theo Jansen  is known for his Strandbeests, giant kinetic sculptures  that move along the beach on their own, powered only by the wind.

Maybe the combination of all the functioning areas make up a soul. Maybe the soul just goes for a ride in the body, like a person riding in a car. Who knows for sure. It would be great for me to have more faith in God and a me

I Don't Want a Tattoo!

What happens if a mistake is made? I bet many of these tattoos are actually only body paint. I hope so! Isn't she hiding her natural beauty? With a False Mustache? It must be the only hair left on his bald head.  Maybe it's not as bad as the others. Not Worth the Pain
