1. Maybe that's a metaphor for the mountain where he goes and talks
to God.

2. I'm telling you...a flash animation of him going down the catwalk with...
..."I'm too sexy" as the soundtrack would be priceless.

6. Are they going to float him in David Lee Roth style?
...or is the damn thing going to open up and he'll rise up on a platform with pyrotechnics and everything?

7. Maybe the Chimp could ride in on his mountain bike!!!
And if he makes it up to the top of his little hail-caesar pedastal **without** falling over, then a banner would drop down: "MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!" :evilgrin:

8. Has anyone been to Nuremberg, Germany or seen the old newsreels
Edited on Thu Sep-02-04 07:28 PM by doc03
of Hitler on his pedestal at the sports stadium there? I stood on that spot back in 1969 it was a creepy feeling. Sometimes I wonder if we are going that route again.

10. say what you will about her politics
Reifenstahl knew how to manipulate the camera! Have you ever noticed in Triumph of the Will how Hitler is always shown by himself, isolated from the adoring masses who look up to him?

BTW, the Nuremberg rally site was still accessible to the public as of the late 90s, and anyone who wanted to could climb up to the podium, although the steps are starting to fall apart. The rest of the stadium seemed to be occupied by soccer fields and a truck-driving school at the time. Creepy place, still. There's a "Wild Western" camp just down the street from it, but it was closed when we were there.
