Next time your 18 year-old offers to decorate the house.....
Edited on Tue Mar-24-09 01:41 PM by emad



CHEEKY student Rory McInnes did some DIY at the family home — painting a 60ft WILLY on the roof.

Parents Andy and Clare were delighted when builders finished a new flat roof on their £1million house.

But Rory, 18, had just watched a documentary about Google Earth — which lets internet users view satellite pictures — and decided to make the property stand out.

He grabbed a tin of white paint and climbed up to the roof, where he spent half an hour reproducing the best-known feature of the Cerne Abbas Giant in Dorset.

For the next 12 months only Rory knew about the giant manhood on the roof near Hungerford, Berks.

2. If I had children...
Okay, let me know when that thought quits terrorizing you...

If I had children, that is EXACTLY the kind of sense of humor they'd probably have too. :evilgrin:

4. Looks like a caricature of a bishop with a flabby cleft chin.
Draw an eyes and mouth on it, and call it art.
