On Flexibility
Hmmmm.........I came across a cute quote the other day:
Blessed are the flexible,
for they shall not be
bent out of shape.
But I was ASTOUNDED by what offerings Google had for me, to illustrate the word flexibility. YOIKS!
The one above reminds me of the poster Back in the Day that said:
In case of nuclear attack,
bend forward,
place your head between your knees
and kiss your ass goodbye.
In the following poster, I beg to differ - in this case, flexibility seems to have gone
Over The Top.
I remember my grandmother. In her day, a girl could not even sit with knees apart. It was considered indelicate. I am imagining her observing these two photos :-)
Holy crap.
