the stuff apparently works, even on older injuries. It was in the news several weeks ago, with pictures of a guy's finger, regrown after having been severed from the first joint, complete with nail. http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,353636,00.html |

I don't think his finger is the appendage he's going to need to regrow. |

I wonder if pixie dust would work on the brains of republicans. Perhaps the brain matter would finally develop normally. Maybe it's not too late. |

This is amazing. A strange choice for a last sentence though: ""That is something that is real science fiction.""

No kidding. Which is it? Real, or fiction? Stupid-arsed newspapers went and fired all of the proofreaders, and this is what they've ended up with: Sentences that parse like they were written by friggin' trogolodytes on a weekend bender.

Did they? I wondered why The Times had gone downhill in recent times. Sloppy spelling and language in general, sometimes. |

Yeah... Totally wasted. The bit that grew around the foreskin, grew up to make movies. It's amazing how a penis actually grew hair on top, and ears, too! Truly, a medical miracle. |

How do you arrive at someone named "Bush" being grown from a piece of foreskin? |
