Can you trump this?


Princess Diana's image is being used by a Chinese lingerie firm in advertisements on the 13th anniversary of her death. The ads have been splashed across giant billboards in shops and airports across southern China and feature a Diana lookalike.

    Swimming against the tide indeed, Sir Toad. One needn't look far to find evidence of the demise of civility and class. It is everywhere.

    That may be the most bizarre mix of strangeness, inappropriateness, and complete lack of cultural awareness ever. Standing on its own, the artwork (that doesn't scream Princess Diana in spite of the tiara) kind of makes me laugh.

    Perhaps Diana would care to sponsor a LFL team?
