The basket is cool. The look like nude fencers covered in volcanic ash.


Trouble sleepin', so I'll ramble here a bit until I get my drowsiness in order. I'm still waiting to hear back for my MRI appointment....I should know more on Monday. Going into that device got me to thinking of the 5-level decontamination sequence in the Andromeda Strain. This involves a series of physical examinations, automatic showers and powderings, and question and answer sessions. The hostility of these events is heightened by the pervasive lack of humanity -- all discussions are held with the computer's disembodied voice, and the environment is cold and unforgiving. I don't think I'd like living in wildfire, and especially would get sick of all the keys involved. The upside of a bad back is that it doesn't kill by coagulation like an alien life form. Downside... I don't get a color-coded jumpsuit to match the floor levels every time I go to the doctor's office. Hopefully, I'll fit in this machine ok.. some MRI's aren't designed for a gargantuan being.

4-legged man! Can the rest of the civic-minded five be soon to follow?

Let's Make a Difference!


An infant born with four legs, three hands, three kidneys and an abnormal liver to a rural Zambian woman two weeks ago, is pictured in Lusaka, July 2, 2003. Doctors at Zambia's main Lusaka University Teaching Hospital said July 3, 2003 the babies deformities were caused by incomplete growth of another fetus and multiplication of cells. They said the baby, whose is yet to be named, would be operated upon and is likely to lead a normal life. --REUTERS/Salim Henry

Now I was going to say that the first picture made me think of my Great Grandma's thimbles going horribly awry!

interesting how children born with two heads and "one" lower extremity are considered siamese twins, but children born with two lower extremities and one head are "an infant" and "an abmornal feotus"

I guess it's all in where you store the personality.
