Have you ever been injured? Did it hurt? Ever had a head injury?

Largest Dildo
The Men-er-Hroech, an enormous stone phallus in Brittany once worshiped by pagans, stands 67 ft. high and weighs 347 tons. Maybe not exactly a dildo in the sense it could be put to amorous use, but still majestic nonetheless.


Thats nothing compared to the Washington Monument. And no I don't understand the point to this post either.

The first link is neat. Notice the total lack of danger between ages 20 and 26.

And the idea of orgasm-as-therapy is something I personally want to get into....

SCA = Serious Cranial Affliction

Great Caesar's Ghost! What's your point, Swift?

Stop it, you're hysterical.

Have you ever asked a question? Did anyone answer? Ever had a nagging curiosity?

Have you ever wanted others to know who you are, but you didn't have anything interesting to post? Just ask some random question on Metafilter, and your ass is covered.

Amazing that the guy whose page is linked to can remember every rash and pimple he ever had.

swift: I loved all three of your links, but I especially appreciated the SCA one. (I've got a lot of friends who are SCAdians and I'm *still* laughing because the descriptions are so very true.)

iceberg: I grabbed all your links quick, too.

I took this post to be a gosh-wow over a handful of the scenic wonders of the web.... I take it from other reactions that this will go missing on me in about two seconds. Pity. I was having fun exploring.

::shudder::

my sister is way, way into the SCA, and suddenly I was transported to some of the most annoying conversations I've ever been party to. (she wore garb for her college graduation.)

but the personal injury timeline was way cool! (and I'm not just saying that 'cause I hit my head last week, either.)

yeah, I noticed that 5-year gap too... and none of his recent ones are really injuries in the traditional sense. hmmm. sounds like someone finally got some coordination, eh?

The first link is an interesting site to poke around...he has good pictures of the WTC and a spooky comment about being at the WTC on Sept. 3, 2001. "(On the) plaza between the two towers I spread my arms and said “Welcome to ground zero of the next war.”"

Also, check the picture in the bottom-left of this page ... there's an eerie juxtaposition with a "Hallmark" billboard and the WTC smoking in the background.

this is either the coolest front-page post in several days, or completely lame - I can't make up my mind ...
