If you have enough money to be doing something so monumentally useless and meaningless to yourself, couldn't you somehow recognize how incredibly shallow and venal this all is and do something useful with that money? Just think of all the good that could be done with that money. Of course, if Ms. Jackson and Mr. Kendall were to recognize this, they wouldn't be DUMB@$$ES, would they?
IN Toytown, Barbie and Ken are made of plastic. Now they have astonishing real-life counterparts - made with plastic surgery.
Cindy Jackson and Miles Kendall have spent about $300,000 transforming themselves into copies of the best-selling dolls, undergoing 89 operations - ranging from jaw implants and chemical peels to liposuction.
Although many would consider them mad, the pair couldn't be happier with their whiter-than-white smiles, wrinkle-free brows and finely chiselled cheekbones....
Mr Kendall was a 33-year-old divorcee from Stoke, England, when he first contemplated changing his appearance two years ago.
The Internet designer saw 48-year-old Ms Jackson, a British-based American, on television discussing her transformation. He recalls: "I contacted her and said, 'There hasn't been a male version of you in the world. Can I be it?'"....
Ms Jackson was already known as the Queen of Cosmetic Surgery after having 42 operations in 13 years.
She had spent more than $70,000 nipping and tucking herself into a copy of her childhood heroine, winning a place in the Guinness Book Of Records as the world's most surgically enhanced woman.
But she was always missing one vital accessory - Ken, who is Barbie's boyfriend. So Mr Kendall's offer was fortuitous.
After getting a doctor to certify that he was sane and not a stalker, she gave the green light for his six-month surgical transformation.
Right; with all of the suffering in the world today, isnt it good to know that someone understands that it's not what you do- it's how you look while you're doing it.
Ah, to be shallow, venal, AND a DUMB@$$. Life is good, no??
