A Team Netherworld Music History Moment: The Bare-Ass Facts

Back in the early daze, AC/DC's promotional team tried to amp up the band's sex appeal. Malcolm always looked like he felt a bit silly striking sexy poses. After the group started selling albums, his clothes stayed on and properly buttoned.

Angus, however, had a natural affinity for stripping off, and showed enough skin for both brothers. This allowed Malcolm to show off the band's stripped-down sound without having to bare his assets.

Not Young, Thin, or Pretty, but Beautiful Anyway

The Real Cie shared this picture and text on our Encouragement in a Discouraging World page. 

When I was a child, the animals I loved most were butterflies and cats. When I saw this picture I thought "that's me, the Butterfly Queen!" Then with sadness I realized, this couldn't be me. I don't look like that picture. I'm not pretty, thin, or young. But what if the Butterfly Queen wasn't pretty, thin, or young? What if she was middle-aged, fat, and plain? Does this detract from the beauty in her soul? This world focuses too much on external beauty. Sometimes people miss knowing lovely people who aren't particularly pretty outside but whose souls are amazing. ~Cie~

I'm not going to clutter up Cie's message by overanalyzing it. She's right.
