Um, *not* a picture of a woman, but a picture of a woman's *chest*.  Think to
yourself: Would Kevin have censored it if the woman's head were included in the

upon the LEGO logo itself?  Would Kevin have censored it if it were simply the
shirt lying on a bed?  The answers should be "no".  The reason is judgment, and
the lack thereof when this pic was taken/cropped.  This isn't rocket science
here.

Yikes, is this what it's coming too?  The lunatic fringe?

There is no lunacy here-- simply good judgment and good taste.

Yikes, is this what it's coming to-- a complete disconnect from civility?
