    Default The face that sunk the 1000 ships

    Dear dear Moderators,

    Now that the "lather me Elmo" contest seems to have come to an end, can we get rid of that Frankenstein-like zombie face on the opening page? I have to admit that the bile gathers in my throat every time I gaze upon that visage.

    Thank you ever so much for your consideration,

    lol - yes, I remember that "zombie" pic, it was from one of the last contests we had which was held a couple years ago - it was also, it seems, centered around lathering....

    Does anyone remember who the "zombie" is??

    PS - I personally thought the Frankenstein-like zombie face looked more like Freddy Krueger

    I thought that was a picture of a guy for whom subtlety had failed.

    Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government.

    Come on, I picked that picture!!!! It was the winner of the last year's contest, so that gives you a little bit of a glimpse on the tastes of the moderators...

    I'm sure you're now waiting with trepidation the announcement of the new winner

    Now that I know the moderators' tastes I'll be stapling my eyelids open for the winning picture
    The white gleam of swords, not the black ink of books, clears doubts and uncertainties and bleak outlooks.

    Funny You should say that. The proprietor of the Koordenwinkel once told me that he had sold the most expensive Plisson brush (>500 euros) to a guy who told him that he lathered his entire body.

    Thumbs up

    Perhaps Koordenwinkel can send us a picture of Mr. Totality and we can make him the new ghoul.
