The Mask of Hwang Ho

Righto - Move over Zorro. I kid you not - this one is called Facekini! First it was the Mohameddans with the burkha - it was religious you see (maybe you don't what with the dark fabric?); Then it was the Chinese women with their welding masks (that one you really got to see - as in the outsider not the maskee since that would cloud their view but keep the sun from hitting their skin); Now comes the face-kini with the colors and textures galore. Don't freak if you see these alien looking creatures on Chinese beaches. They are simply lovely ladies enjoying their moment in the sun. When I first saw this profound piece of news I again thought of Mandakini - what if she had gotten into designer garments and hit on this idea of the Facekini - to protect the fragile females from the wrath of the Sol (meaning sun). If advertised on Facebook as a Facekini would it be 'Face'tious?
