Beauty Is Not
Beauty is not the sole domain of the young. So much of beauty is perception; not perception only but intent. It’s easy to find beautiful features whether the model is young, or in her 50′s — it’s all about what you are looking for.

The Naked Harp
Guinness has used a Harp as it’s logo for quite some time. But the illusion, the mental image of the harp conjures up all sorts of things in the mind of a guy who has downed a couple brews no matter who made it.
