Inventing Leo OR My Personal Da Vinci Code

"Da" FUN FACT: Mr.’Vinci was the genius behind the photobucket distort twirl (Refer to the vitruvian crotch, above.). First recognised as the Pee Pee Conceal Curl, Leo originated the device per papal dictate when Pope Alexander VI, ironically, the most memorable of corrupt and secular Catholic head honchos of the Renaissance, saw an opportunity to placate his quick-to-condemn moral commentators (Rumors were rife about Pa Pa Alex’s "holy" orgies and debauched lifestyle.) --but more so, because he was desperate to stifle the bothersome, incessant giggling of far to many out-of-control nuns creating their own portal to (and definition of) The Age of Discovery-- pressed him for a remedy.

DO YOU EVER wonder about Leonardo da Vinci? What I mean is, was he nice? Was he fun? Funny? Was he likeable? I DOUBT IT.
More times than not,

know-it-alls
are just plain obnoxious.

YEP. AS EARLY AS his tweens, Leo --having ALL the answers, coupled with growing pains had a head that already had begun to swell, as evidenced in this

Bobblehead wannabe da Vinci and his foster bro, Mike Seaver, who, lacking in the brain cell department, thought he could compete with Leo, using his naturally BIG hair alone.

discovered in a Renaissancey shoebox marked "Those Were the Days, My Friend, I Thought They’d Never End" (only in Italian), found under a Renaissancey bed historians believe to have been his.

DID YOU FURTHER KNOW
Leonardo da Vinci hatched the

snowcone?
FOR THAT, I am eternally grateful!

SO.
What’s for supper?
Perhaps... oh, I dunno...

Baloney?!

Have a great day

Hi, MJ! Wouldn't it be grand if we could all subscribe to the vitruvian distort twirl? It would be a welcome substitute for "Not now. I have a headache."

I bet Leo complained about his back alot after painting the Sistine Chapel. He probably wasn't invited to too many parties.

SparkleFarkle said...

Wife O: Yeah, I don't think Leo went to many parties because, obviously, he didn't have many friends. If friends were his, someone would have surely "had his back" when he was painting the Sistine Chapel. Hmm. I vaguely remember... He DID have one friend! A man named Doan who gave him tiny, little pills for his aching caboose side at the end of ceiling days!

That was a long lead in indeed.

I love the way your mind works. And, yes, sometimes I do wonder what famous dead people were really like.
