IT'S A MODEL PLANE

CHECK OUT SOUTHWEST AIRLINES' NEW PLANE . . . FEATURING A PICTURE OF SUPERMODEL BAR REFAELI ON THE SIDE:

As a promotional deal with "Sports Illustrated", Southwest Airlines has unveiled a Boeing 737 with a picture of BAR REFAELI on the side. Bar was this year's swimsuit issue cover model, and she currently dating LEONARDO DICAPRIO.

Now, personally, I appreciate Southwest's decision to put Bar Refaeli on the side of its plane because . . . let's face it . . . she's smoking hot. But some people are a little less-than-thrilled with the decision because they say the picture is offensive . . . and even PORNOGRAPHIC. (???) (Strait Times)
