Something like : "No, Mrs. Willowfall, more stringent environmental regulations will reduce air pollution drastically, so there is no future for investing in mouth caps manufacturing!"?

Actually it was getting out of stock completely into a governmental bond fund and then getting back into the market in late June when everybody realized they had lost their minds for 5 months.
Being a student of history I should have listened to myself instead of my financial guy who said "This won't affect the market drastically people can't be that stupid can they?"
ALWAYS bet on stupid.

"Oh, I didn't know you had this picture framed, Madge!"
"Yes indeed, Beryl. I wanted a memento of the day we crucified our husbands. What a day that was! I never saw Kevin writhe and scream like that before."
"Well, nobody said it would be easy. I suppose his mum is happy to see you have a picture of him, at least."
"Funny you should ask, but she was very complimentary. She apparently crucified Kevin's dad 20 years ago, and now she has nothing to remember him by."

Unfortunately, this is very true. Individual humans are stupid much of the time. Collectively, humans are stupid almost 100% of the time.
I'm always surprised when people make collective decisions that aren't the worst option. I'd think I'd die of shock if they ever went for the best option.
ph195 I liked how this turned out, one of Makar's lovelies in the arena
ph196, ph197 a couple of "improved" Last Temptation pics
ph198, ph199 mixed crux in the arena, original scene from the Polish Qua Vadis
ph200 don't remember why I did this, the original figure is by IgnikaMarkus
ph201 like unwrapping a present
ph202 partisan?
ph203 atmospheric experiment
ph204 intended to accompany a story which is still not finished - crucifixion experiments, a topic that interests me

I appreciate very much ph203: please accept my compliments
The next batch is a little male heavy, so apologies to those who prefer fem crux
ph205 An embarrassingly ordinary celebrity crux, sorry!
ph206 ready to carry
ph207, ph208, ph209, ph210 art crux, three men and a woman. I had a lot of fun with this sort of thing around that time
ph211, ph212, ph213 The art comes into the gallery, naturally
ph214 possibly a deserter

Phlebas challenging Rubens again!
These two are hilarious. Someone get the poor woman a magnifiying glass, for heaven's sake.
This one definitely is worthy of gallery display!
ok, a bit heavy on the male crux again this time but I had a lot of fun playing with these ones.
ph215 this pic and its variations have been hanging around since 2013, I kept fiddling and fiddling, and finally produced what I think are the final versions last year. Never posted. This is all about variations on the extreme humiliation of being crucified naked in a modern, judicial setting, and were inspired by a drawing by Hardman, one which I will post later as I did a more direct emulation of it in a separate manip
a crucified naked in public
b shameful erection
c even more shamefully forced to cum
d I wonder, is she a paid official or perhaps his wife, forced to do this duty to save him some of his humiliation.
e can't hold it any longer
ph216 and ph217 variations on a Roman crux, it must be hot under that cloth!
ph218 a variation on ph210 which you liked, this time the male figs are naked too (I think it was a request when I first posted them)
ph219 another gallery pic
ph220 female emulating St Peter

in the ph215 series, vs. ph214 and ph217 : these row of colmuns seem to be a favourite site for crucifixions, throughout times?
in recent years I have started using some backgrounds more than once. Lazy
ph221 a bit of outdoor photography
ph222 I did two versions of this, couldn't decide which I preferred, the clean or the gritty
ph223 I have revisited this scene a few times, I find piercing with a spear quite a dramatic moment, the victim helpless to act, maybe even welcoming it
ph224 another fascination, nude stage crucifixion
ph225 and ph226 revisiting favourite scenes with different figures
ph227 wartime peril
ph228 modern peril
ph229 are you entertained?

The 'gritty' looks like an aged painting. The clean as its original appearance?
"Look, Miss, I'm a bit busy here, but I'll be with you as soon as I kill this guy here, okay. Now stop distracting me."are you entertained?
Hi Lox, the gritty was the original, the other was cleaned up with a filter
ok, still in the very productive year of 2013
ph230 a mature woman punished by the Romans. I'd almost wonder if it was Boudicca
ph231 now that's what I call a fresco
ph232 one done for James
ph233 We were talking about Fox Talbot recently, this was one of his early works (in an alternative universe)
ph234 speaks for itself
ph235 another on the theme of modern, carefully regulated judicial crucifixion. The final checkup
ph236, ph237 these were playing with the idea of the eye witness
ph238 someone's dream, but which one?
ph239 diversity comes to Oberammergau (which should have been on this year but was postponed)
