Wow, how bizzarre is that!

What interested me is that the (so-called) experts all agree and state that it is impossible for a seed or tree to grow inside the human body - but there it was, and photographic proof. How many times have we all been told something by medical experts, only to prove them wrong?

Well, I'm not an expert, but I'm very skeptical: a plant getting that far beyond seedling stage, without sunlight (photosynthesis) to support those two full inches of conversion to living organic matter. That's a tall dark plant for the lungs and a tall tale by my take.

More skepticism: http://www.cbc.ca/health/story/2009/04/ ... -lung.html


Still, I think it's a plausible argument for targeted deforestation helping us to breathe better....

I can vouch for the authenticity of that statement---after having had not one but two Rum Runners out on the patio last night.

Since it was in his lung, maybe he thought he was smoking a little herb and it was pine instead. Got to be careful what you're inhaling!

Ahhh, the wonders of computer graphics .....

Just put the seed in a glass of water and set it in the sunlight. Hmmmm. No sunlight!! Dang. So much for that idea. Ahh, the 'puter!

and photographic proof
I've seen photographic proof that Santa got to the moon before Apollo 11. Even with my rudimentary skills I could create a photo like that using Photoshop.

And something just occurred to me. Why was it green? If a plant is kept in the dark for a while, it usually goes yellow. Then it dies

Our sworn enemies, 5aces...

So are these hideous creatures once again upon the threshold of moments soon to unfold in our part of the universe? Ancient hieroglyphs tell us these maligned dark creatures were driven nearly seven parsecs into the next quadrant.

If they are arriving, please inform high command in your Northern Sector. Godspeed, my friend. We shall drive them away as decisively as we did millennia ago. Count on it...

Yes. Evil they are. They come and take away our women ... uh, and our puppies too.

Where evolution failed, we have succeeded, whether or not that is a good thing remains to be seen.
Primates and chickens have never been known for their flying prowess - much to the embarrassment of chickens especially, all that effort to grow wings only to spend your life in a constant state of disappointment, it's heart breaking.
Well help is at hand, call them obscure evolutionary hiccups, or call them what they are, very stupid - whatever you call them, the Flying Monkeys have been sailing around.
