Look at her hand in the photo - it’s like her tentacles are about to burst through.

#18  The way I heard the story was just the index finger was amputated. That was how the middle finger salute originated.

#17  I think there's something to that 'aliens' tag. The last time I saw that hand, it was one of those little slug critters in "Men In Black".

#15  Yes, when in doubt, round up an all star female cast and stage a performance of The Vagina Monolouges. This will accomplish....something.
I hope Jane and her fellow travellers will accept my personal invitation to my one man show, "Oh, Boy! My Big, Giant Dick Can Talk!!" Eve Ensler can eat my ass.

#14  Getting sleepy I guess, i meant to say:

" I have read more than several historical authors who all claim the story to be true, then again historians have known to be pretty far of the mark on ocasion, so I cant really say.

And now im of to chase the maidens of the night, have a good one Rantburgers.

#13  It might well be, but if its a legend, its a very widespread one, I have read more than several historical authors who all claim the story to be true, so I dont really know.

#12  Evert, I believe Shipman's right. Its a good story, but apparently apocraphyll (sp). Although I am curious to know the real origin of the two fingered salute.

#11  From the Beeb article:

Actresses Jane Fonda and Marisa Tomei marked International Women's Day by staging a performance of The Vagina Monologues in India.

They should take their show on the road to Pakistan and Saudi just for shits and giggles...

#8  In the good old days of black plague, the battle of Agincourt, the Medici's, Vlad the Impaler's rule over Transylvanie and other blessings of feudal system, this was the gesture used by the longbow-men, the artillery of their day to tout their enemys, if a longbowman was captured on the field of battle the index and middelfinger of his righthand were amputated so he would never fire a bow in anger or otherwise again.

#7  Cold Fred. Very Cold. Last time I saw Hanoi Jane was in Waukeenah Fl. We are still favored with the appearance of Buffalo Ted from time to time.

She can have it. The 60-year, 60,000 mile warranty's run out...

#5  When you se the hands of Jane Fonda think in the thousands of Vietnamese and Cambodgian women who had their hands cut because of her. Jane Fonda is a war criminal and should be treated like such.

#4  maybe it's an offer, after all, she's in charge of her vagina now!

#3  yeah that is a FU in Scotland at least.

Maybe that was her intention ;)

#2  Ah, another thing. Doesn't Jane's V mean FU if you live in the British Isles, folks? Please comment. What arrogance, ignorance and insensitivity!
