I've never had even the remotest interest in body modifications or piercings, but in the last two days I've seen two things that made me rethink that. One was something I saw on TV about a dolphin who'd been fitted with a prosthetic dorsal fin (love this line from the Yahoo story: We make tires; we specialize in foots of sort)
The other was this. I have to wear glasses pretty much all the time, and I've worn them since I was two years old, so they feel pretty much like a part of my face- why not take it to the next level? Aside: people react to a two year old wearing glasses pretty much the same way they react to a dog in a sweater. "That's so cute! It thinks it's people!".

Mmmm. Yeah. I've been wearing glasses since age 7, so I feel pretty much the same way you do. But there ain't no way I'd hang em from piercings.
