Why would you mix mud with cole slaw for a women's wrestling pit?? I just don't understand. I lead such a sheltered life in distant Alaska, but now I live not that far from horrible places like Lake Havasu and Parker(here in Arizona) where sexy & naked people romp around and engage in lascivious acts. I had a married friend tell me he is not allowed by his wife to take the boat there!
Your idea for Segway Barbie is along the lines of the "Trailer trash Barbie" which someone actually created and sold before Mattel Inc. got royally pissed off at them! They also had a "Gangsta Barbie" and a few other real gems.
I would love to see an "Extropian Barbie" on the shelves. One of the editions would be the "Primo Barbie" with all the upgrades Natasha envisioned at her website.
Or perhaps a "Cryonics Barbie" where the package comes with two dolls, a dewar and a nanite reanimation cocoon. Cryonics Barbie starts out big-boned and homely looking going into the dewar, but comes out of the cocoon as a gorgeous post-singularity Barbie!
Now how about a Ken version of Spike Jones, Robert Bradbury, Anders Sandberg or Eliezer Yudkowsky??
best wishes,
John : )
