Silhoutte Though I long to find out what peoples pet peeves are :D
And every one said, 'If we only live,
We too will go to sea in a Sieve,---
To the hills of the Chankly Bore!'
Far and few, far and few, Are the lands where the Jumblies
live;
Their heads are green, and their hands are blue, And they went to
sea in a Sieve.

LMAO!!! I think Pet Peeves would be an amusing challenge. I shall cast my vote on #9 . :)
How come we say 'It's colder than hell outside' when
isn't it realistically always colder than hell since hell is
supposed to be fire and brimstone?

gonna be all over the place on this one.. working with an image in negative/solarization i thought would be interesting.. Solarization: "Reversal or partial reversal of tones in a photographic image caused by vast amounts of over-exposure. It is often inaccurately used to describe the partial reversal effect caused by fogging photographic material with light, which is actually the Sabattier effect." Not quite the same as a negative image but similiar in the final look, much like a infrared image some background information of the process: history of more history of som examples (nudity) more examples (slideshow) solarization using PhotoShop

Haha... pet peeves! Hard to choose just two from all the stuff we all could come up with LOL
@Nikki... yep, you're right, they grow with age! Yesterday I found a saying on someone's t-shirt, very fitting to this " Every day I'm living the list of those who can kiss my ass gets longer!" LMAO
Anyway, me thinks, I'd go for #8 Alphabet Soup
Moni :o)
