Two comments.

I don't remember where I heard the statement, but it sure fits in

this case " Just because you can, doesn't mean you should. "

And the other involves an ex-boss of mine, one who was NOT on my

list of best bosses ever, anything but. Well, seems that he really

liked gumballs and had a jar of them on his desk. It also seems

that yours truly was out one noon at the local gag and gift store

and found some big gumballs decorated very realistically as ...

eyeballs.

You guessed it. I bought some, took them back to work, and when you

can figure out who was not at his desk, put a few into his jar. A

couple of hours later, we all heard this loud " Yech! How Gross! " I

never did admit to doing it, but everyone in the office pretty well

knew anyway.

And for Barb - yes, it was none other than you know who.

I replied to Bonnie's original post earlier but it seems to have

gotten lost in cyberspace (a lot of that happening lately).

At any rate, my opinion then (and now) is the old saying " Just

because you can, doesn't mean you should. "

This is just about as bad as the most recent trend in cosmetic

surgery I read about a couple of weeks ago. Seems the current

fashion craze, instead of buying shoes that actually fit, is to have

toes surgically shortened. That's right - cut part off so you can

squeeze into that high priced fashion pump.

There is medically necessary surgery. There is elective surgery for

sound medical reasons. There is even elective cosmetic surgery that

makes reasonable sense. But lopping off parts of toes or implanting

sparklies in the eyes is just plain WRONG! You would think that any

governing board of surgeons would start jerking licenses, but I

guess not...

That's my rant for the day.

On ripley's believe or not, there was an Asian contortionist who was BINDING

her feet in the old Chinese tradition to make her feet smaller!!!! OUCH OUCH

OUCH!!!

No way to the above for me, ever!!!

I only have my ears pierced once and that was enough!!! I'm not into

inflicting pain on myself....or possible infections....

My girls think some tattoos and body piercings are cool, but they both said " Are

you serious? Why would someone do that? " about these eyball jewelry thingys.

Just too freaky for us!

What about those people who do things like get horns inplanted in their heads,

or get their toungs cut in half.

I saw a show on them - like they try to transform themselves into animals that

they admire.

There is a guy in Britian who has tried to change himself into a wild cat, and

even lives like one.

Then there's the people who get their teeth filed into points.

I think it's sad. They must have a very desperate feeling of not being what

they want to be. Like people who get sex changes. It gets very intense with

some people.

I think - they must be very miserable with themselves to go to such drastic

measures.

I think it's very sad.
