good observation skills or latent homesexual tendencies?

does anyone else giggle to themselves when you see someone that's missed a belt loop?

i pride myself on not having missed a loop in many years. i don't know why this is such an obsession of mine. this morning, i was walking the parking lot and noticed the guy in front of me had missed one of his double loops in the back. i have no idea why the fuck this jumps out at me. honestly, its not as though i'm checking out his ass. what was i thinking this morning? oh right...who the fuck would tuck in that style of shirt? he was wearing a tony soprano classic - black shirt with two vertical white strips in the front. and this fucker tucked it in. so of course i was checking him out. and then the missed loop? come on. he deserves to have that bus hit him as he crosses the street. but alas, it did not.

eric zahn (and others) must be happy....

x-men in real life?

everyone has seen the news about the 3 arm baby, right?



i find this completely amazing. for years, i've held the belief that we shouldn't cut off extra toes, fingers, etc. who are we to say that this isn't the next stage in evolution?

medical science is making us live longer than we should. medicines and vaccines keep the weakest of people from dying when natural selection dictates they should.

i guess my point is that i'm confused now. i want to maintain that evolution is a good school of thought. but i have no idea what i would have done if keira came out looking like this baby. i'm sure i'd axe it off.

but i can't help to wonder how in the world that child with the extra arms could swing a bat. does the extra arm create greater batspeed? if he had the size to be a defensive lineman, would he be not allowed to play because the extra arm added leverage and an "unfair" advantage in the battle of the trenches? would anyone have the guts to not axe extra appendages like that? i think it'd be amazing to see what happens if left untouched. from a genetics standpoint, does he now carry the extra arm chromozome so he has a potential of producing 3 armed kids? granted, i think i heard that the extra arm didn't have any muscle tone, so i'm sure he'd been eaten by a tricerotops, but its still fun to ponder.
