...Freud sparked his desire to make clothes that a child might see while looking through the keyhole of his mother's boudoir. (Presumably Mrs. G. was not a T.J. Maxx shopper.) The show was staged as a mock wedding, with cross-bearing mandarins and gorilla women strolling down the runway to a sound track of orgasmic moans. A few were outraged, but most fashion pros merely chuckled. As Freud might have said, sometimes a gorilla woman is just a gorilla woman...
...generally surly report citing the rising risk of on-the-ground collisions between airplanes and other vehicles, and pointing an accusatory finger at the Federal Aviation Administration. Apparently, we don't need to worry about air safety so much - we'd be better off concentrating on getting from the runway to baggage check in one piece. There are too many planes and attendant service vehicles on the ground at any given time, the NTSB reports, and that crush of traffic is making it harder for safety crews to keep planes (and service trucks) at a safe distance from one another...
...cerebral, are generous to a fault. (And how. Vieira once gave Wesley Snipes a lap dance--"after he requested it!" she protests.) There are numerous fashion features--Jones has often shilled her line of wigs--and for every contrarian service piece on "swimsuits for real women" there's a runway show of boobulous Victoria's Secret models.

In an Elian Gonzalez segment, Behar likened the Miami standoff to the Cuban missile crisis, where...

His female companion fervently explained how Rei shreds fabric to create her massive ruffles and pointed out the highlights from the spring shows. His only response was a head-shaking and a throaty chuckle. "So the punk look is back...
After the aircraft landed safely at California's Edwards Air Force Base last December, its onboard computer was to instruct the plane to taxi along the runway at about 15 m.p.h. Instead, the computer commanded the jet-powered drone to taxi at 180 m.p.h. The aircraft zoomed--to about 90 m.p.h.--before it careered off the runway, smashed its landing gear and collapsed into a sandy hill, causing $5.3 million in damage...
