[Culturechat] Oh Boy! What a weekend!

[VCR]

Things are jumping in The Heartland, if this weekend's activities are 
any indication.

1. In Dallenwill near Stans, there was a snuff sniffing contest. Fifty 
four men and women took part in seeing who could get the most snuff up 
one or both nostrils. Some used tricks such as Vaseline up the nose to 
hold the snuff while others just went au natural. It seems that there 
are snuff clubs all over. The winners were a husband wife team. Don't 
you know that there must be a lot of sneezing in that household?

2. In Luzern, 291 people of ages between 11 and 70 swam from the Richard 
Wagner Museum across the lake to the public beach.

3. Last, and perhaps most unusual, two artists adorned 124 "models" 
(many recruited from the local beaches in Luzern) with coats of abstract 
body paint designs. The models were then arranged to form a Picasso like 
painting. These women were all topless but did wear underwear below. 
 From the picture in the paper, body paint will never replace bras.
