Okay, I've seen it up close and personal now and I really, really, REALLY don't get why the Mona Lisa is so famous.

"Pisces are the most idealistic of the signs of the zodiac. They are selfless and extremely devoted to those who matter to them most. Their caring is unconditional. These people express themselves through areas such as the arts. Pisces are notorious for having many alter egos which can surface at any moment. They can inflict a lot of pain in certain situations, as well as receive it, and they have a talent for 'bending' the truth. Being extremely imaginative people, this sometimes gets the best of them. Reality can become easily clouded with Pisces. Traits: artistic, adaptable, sensitive, thoughtful, impractical, spiteful and sometimes immoral."
