LADIES & GENTLEMEN: JOSIP BROZ TITO 

Who? You know, that militantly non-aligned communist who 
held Yugoslavia together for 40+ years after kicking the
Nazis out. So here we have this virtual Web shrine to the
guy complete with texts of his speeches, tons of photos
hobnobbing with other world renowned leaders, (Yassir Arafat,
Idi Amin, Richard Nixon) and a section entitled "His Last
Battle" reenacting his lingering death in an equally
lingering photo series.  Conceptually weird in some deep
hind brain manner. We can't figure out if these guys are
serious in their adoration or what. But then, maybe anyone
who managed to hold Yugoslavia together all these years
deserves a shrine. Then again, maybe not. You decide.
