What the heck…another oceanic image — this time one I find appealingly weird.

Kitty’s lamentable condition has perhaps been in the back of my mind since I had the pleasure of perusing a book by Jane and Michael Stern called The Encyclopedia of Bad Taste, which, perhaps predictably, has an article on “Enormous Breasts.” Said article devotes an entire page to a photograph of Chesty Morgan, an exotic dancer and star of such movies as Deadly Weapons (1974) and Double Agent 73. Here’s an alternative representation of Chesty.
