A cascading cornucopia of cool comics, crazy cartoons, & classic collectables - plus other completely captivating & occasionally controversial contents. With nostalgic notions, sentimental sighings, wistful wonderings, remorseful ruminations, melancholy musings, rueful reflections, poignant ponderings, & yearnings for yesteryear. (And a few profound perplexities, puzzling paradoxes, & a bevy of big, beautiful, bedazzling, buxom Babes to round it all off.)
My mother always pronounced her name as Bridgit Bar dot (pronounced exactly as it looks) which was a lot less alluring than the proper French pronunciation of Breegeet Bardo. I remember in the '80s 'The Sun' had a picture of her on its' front page where she had a very lined face and the headline was something like "Look what sunbathing has done to Bardot's looks" which was rather cruel - typical of The Sun though, exploit women's looks and...ahem, other assets...when they are young and then mock them later.

You mean you didn't like any of the previous babes? Gasp!
If I had to nominate the most beautiful girl in the world, this is my choice.
I think there are far too many beautiful girls in the world to choose just one, JP.

Ta for the link, Phil - looks like an interesting site.

True, CJ - but she did turn into a bit of an old trout in later years, it has to be said.
