Ugly Renaissance Babies

The title says it all. Pages 3 and 5 are the best IMHO.

However when I was in the Uffizi many years ago, about six months after I started doing daycare in fact, I too thought 'God, these painters, didn't they ever *look* at a baby? They're all shrunken adults.' Then I went out into the street and looked at the Florentine babies. They looked like shrunken adults. Drop-dead beautiful adults start as really weird babies; and really cute babies wind up looking (and acting) like our mayor.

We pulled up the mayoral picture, and Nick's brother said it best 'He looks like you could squeeze and pop him, or something.'

Oh god, if only we could. A true pimple on the ass of the body politic.

I'm amazed. How did you manage to post in the middle of this morning's DDOS?
