Fingernails Of A Rockstar
If you are a famous rocstar, but must play seto - old ethnic nation of south-estonia - on a folk music festival, for not to lose your face, you may paint your fingernails glamourously. But if you're clever, you do it so it plays together with you ethnic outfit & cloths color. We love you, Lenna! Photo by Aapo Ilves, 23. 07. 2009,Viljandi.

Weatherproof Snowmen
A sad feature about snowmen is that they die when spring comes. Therefore the evolutionary process has developed fitter snowmen made of fashion industry raw materials. I wonder what do they do in summer?

Tired Santa Beggar
Global economic crises mean loss of jobs for many but too much workload for the beggar Santa Claus featured in our blog already. Looks like he has read a book called Saku Rock.

Viking Girls
Two lovely young ladies depicting the old days of glory: Estonian vikings are said to be the ones who destroyed a rich Swedish city Sigtuna. This is how their daughters, sisters or girlfriends looked like. Clearly not many animal rights activists among them.
