New It's like what George Carlin said many years ago...
"You can prick your finger, but you can't finger your prick"

(OK, it's not at all like what George Carlin once said. but the remark about "While we can't pick our officers, we can pick our prosecutors/states attorneys/etc.", just trigger an associative memory flash. I'm sorry...I'm out of practice. But it's still a funny line....)

New The nose, though, is truly unique.
I mean, you're stuck with the one you've got, so you can't(*) pick your nose -- but then again, if there's one thing you can(+) pick, it's your nose.

Truly the most remarkable of organs!



(*): Disregarding, for the moment, the wonders of modern plastic surgery. (If they even qualify -- even if it looks different, isn't it still essentially the same?)

(+): Assuming you haven't lost all your fingers to traumatic injury or, say, leprosy.

New "Harder to pick than a plastic nose"...

Is it enough to love
Is it enough to breathe
Somebody rip my heart out
And leave me here to bleed
 
Is it enough to die
Somebody save my life
I'd rather be Anything but Ordinary
Please



-- "Anything but Ordinary" by Avril Lavigne.
