The idea for this image came to me as I was in Brazil last week. I even asked a couple of friends down there about their thoughts on it, and from what I understand Brazilians don't exactly enjoy being thought of when this subject comes up ( I was even told that their country isn't responsible for it's origins), but that if I created it, it would be enjoyed in that part of the world. So let's see, shall we?

On another note, regular readers will remember a problem that I had over the weekend, which I ranted about, and now that post has been taken down. I took it down voluntarily after several back and forth email conversations with the "My Food Looks Funny.com" people. I can tell you that the problem has been taken care of very amicably, and much care will be taken with Bent Objects when it appears on their site in the future. All I can say is that from my personal experience of the last 2 days talking with them -- they were very pleasant and tried to make me happy.
I do wish to thank each and every one of you who helped to bring the problem to their attention. Friends of this blog are always on the lookout for Bent Objects best interests, which constantly surprises me, and (I know this will sound corny) gives me a bit of a warm feeling inside. Thank you.

Ha! well played, sir.
I'm laughing not at the image... but of the "preparation" for the image... I hope you bought her dinner first. :) HA!
Haha! It took me longer than it should have to get it, but when I did boy did I laugh.
And I'm glad that you got things worked out with the cheezburger people. You definitely deserve credit for all the hard work you put into your images!
Ok, maybe I'm just being a pedant, but isn't that a sort of inverse "Brazilian"? or at least a "Hollywood"? The whole point of a Brazilian is that it isn't left completely bald.
Yep, I am just being a pedant, aren't I? Still, good to see you creating again, as haven't had much from you of late
I always thought Miss Kiwi is from New Zealand. Because the packaging says so :)
O.M.G. i literally snorted when i saw this...HILARIOUS.
i hope your new found friends take this as the compliment it is meant to be.
i love your mind...as always!
I'm glad it's all taken care of!
Hi Terry,
Regarding the previous post - you commented that you had to use Google Translate to contact a Russian site. If you need help with translating Russian or Spanish in the future, I am happy to volunteer. A real person who speaks the language is generally a better translator than Google Translate (though it is a fun toy).

This little fellow is truly fetching! lol
