beautiful? not sure about that
during the recent flooding in my little part of liverpool's suburbs, a very drunken woman decided to have a bath in the street. she was filling her shoe with the floodwaters, a large part of which was contaminated by sewage, then pouring the water over her head. she even drank some of it. she tried to swim up the street, too. now, i know what some of you will be thinking, but i know this woman personally and she's fine and healthy, having suffered no more ill effects than a mild stomach ache after her impromptu mermaid act.
i wouldn't call it beautiful, but she certainly cheered up a great many people on a day where many of them had suffered serious damage to their homes and posessions.
Doris, you lunatic, i salute you!
