I was reading a article in Newsweek about..ok, brace yourselves, a baby with a brain tumor, but the tumor wasn't as incredible as what came out of the tumor. Now, before you go off and say I'm lying, or that it's some sort of alien baby, I need to tell you about this deformation called 'fetus in fetu' where babies for twins inside them. Now, what came out of this baby's brain tumor, was a fully developed foot, hand and thigh. The doctor who removed it said it looked like a breech birth (when babies come out feet first instead of head first). I thought that was ridiculous and it reminded me of another case I was once where this man had a dead, fully developed fetal twin in his abdomen...freaky stuff...I know my dad may have foot in mouth disease but foot in brain?! ok..har har har...I'll post again later.

More postage

Does anyone know about the game 'spore creatures'? I'm gonna assume we don't because i didn't up until I stumbled upon this article on the different contraversies with the game. Ok, so basically, Spore, as it's been commonly reffered to, is a type of RPG (role play game) where you create and grow creatures on your own planet and you let them go and explore or whatever... It's a pretty sugar coated game. There's no violence or questionable adult themes where you steal and murder, yet this game is getting the same amout of contraversy as GTA (Grand Theft Auto). As soon as the game came out, everyone jumped on it. Some people were complaining that it "made you god" or, it put you in a goddly role in which people could create and destroy things, not taking life serious enough.. ok, quick note, I'm a vegetarian, I preach this ALL the time. I'm always getting in people's faces saying that "that cow had a life too!" or, "some of those chickens lived a really harsh life just to be killed" and guess what? No one really gives a rat's ass about these REAL creatures that lead REAL lives, but now there's this big hype about 7 year olds playing god in a sugar coated video game -rolls eyes- what's the world coming to? Any way, that's not the only contraversy in this game (believe it or not). The evolutionists are getting on this games case not too! They're saying that it's "a bad representation of Darwins theory" because it didn't follow the "corret 5 steps" or some bull crap like that... Plus with the evolution bit, those of us who are religious (thank GOD for them) are leaping on it saying that teaching evolution to children in a game is sinful...or whatever...
So, here's the rundown, this little 'rated everyone' 'clay-mation character' game is getting as much as good old GTA where you steal, rape and piliage!
I'm not saying spore's a good game or anything. Looks kinda pointless to me, but COME ON people, it's JUST a game!
