A damp squib

Czech explosives maker Explosia has backed off a lawsuit against Madonna. While her "Semtex Girls" project undoubtedly tramples on Explosia's intellectual property, director Ladislav Lehky says "We can't really prove we suffer a loss from that." Unless, that is, she decides to deal with explosives production.

Explosia would be better advised to keep their powder dry. An anxious world has yet to learn just what Madonna has in mind for her Semtex Girls.

"The Semtex Girl is a girl who is dynamic, a girl who explodes, who doesn't know the meaning of nine to five, a girl who is unstoppable and who doesn't take no for an answer. And has excellent taste.

"Guys can be Semtex Girls too."

Would it not be more correct to put it this way?

"The Semtex Girl is a girl who is dynamic, who doesn't know the meaning of nine to five, a girl who is unstoppable and who doesn't take no for an answer. And has excellent taste. And who then explodes."

Apart from the oddly terrorista imagery in my mind, it seems to be a trend with limited recruitment capacity.
