The future of the modelling world.

This is Alessandra Ambrosio.
She is from Brazil.

And she is the top paid model in the world. I like the way Yahoo! described her as "long legged Goddess". It is an apt expression of sheer admiration of someone very beautiful.

She has very charming smile and she is really slender.

Oh, isn't beauty is a gift of God? I shamelessly admire beauty in anything, be it a living being or inanimate things.

She is praised as the future of the modeling world by another world famous beauty, Tyra Banks.

The dirtiest jobs in the world.

And we complain that we do the dirtiest jobs in the world? If that is true, what would you say to these people?

If I were to have grumbled of job dissatisfaction,, I would start praying for these people and for me too to hold on to my present job.

Well, I have more pictures of people doing more bizarre jobs on the street but restrained myself from portraying them here. These two pictures itself are too much to digest.
