1. Did you see this one?

"Doctors grow new jaw in man's back"

2. Yes, I did, cool, but check this out

The researchers report one side-effect that clold be dangerous.

The warn patients to be very careful when driving, especially if someone tells you to shut-up!

Hehehe, you may close your eyes.

3. I have checked it out and here is something for you, as well.

Despite the success of the experimental procedure, in which a new jaw was grown on the man's back, the patient has since engaged in a consistent pattern of backbiting against his doctors.

HA! We're killing us!

4. I just read today. . .

That after the tiger tried to chew Roy Horn's head off, they had to remove part of his skull to give his brain someplace to swell. Roy's not the tiger's. They stored that piece in his abdomen until it was time to put it back. Neat.

5. I find that kind of gross.

I'm sure if I was in Roy's shoes, I'd be all "Store my brain cap wherever you can! I may need it later!" but from an objective, I'm-not-gravely-injured-at-this-time perspective, that just kinds of creeps me out.

On a similar note, the wrestler known as Mankind (Mick Foley) had his ear torn off in a match many years ago. He claims they built a little pouch in his earlobe to hold the recovered cartilege, in case he ever wants to have it medically restored. Don't know if that's actually true or not, but it's what he claims.
