Watching the news...

The Ukraine has what must be the most beautiful President and Prime Minister in the world, to judge from TV pictures. President Viktor Yushchenko is as handsome as a golden-age Hollywood star, and in recent pictures towered over Vladimir Putin. Prime Minister Yulia Tymoshenko is, again to judge by TV pictures, young, blonde and as beautiful as a model.

And they hate each other - apparently, for reasons that have nothing to do with their looks.

...and this after the dioxin poisoning that "ruined" Yushchenko's looks, too!

It looks to me like his face recovered somewhat - it looks less swollen than it did then. Hey, do you suppose that Putin had him poisoned because he hated being loomed over and being made to feel balding and long-nosed?

I dunno; Putin's nose wouldn't look too bad with a different facial structure.

...my point exactly. 8-)
