.The body....

How many things can you keep in you mind simultaneoulsy?

A long-ago walk in the woods stripping bark off a birch tree to make post-cards from it? A picture on you wall of your mother and father? Your uncle's paintings? The smell of smoke around a bonfire? A fire-engine clanging in the night? Putting a night-crawler on a barbed hook to catch bass? Your first car? Your first girl-friend ? The ride to Gull Lake in Minnesota? The first time you almost got killed? Hitting a soft-ball over a short right field wall?

The human body has been likened to a bowling ball on top of a pencil.

So much is crammed into the command and control center called a brain.

A massive complex brain has lobes, nerve endings, synapses, proteins --- what elese.

It has lobes and nerve endings.

A yawn can be purposefully begun --- and is then almost impossible to stop.

When does your brain inform you that you love a girl? When you like a girl? When lust after a girl.

A new study shows that men are more courageuos than women. Really? Men could you give birth? Once? five times? Ten times?

DNA, different blood types, kidneys, liver, eyes,ears, nose and throat. Also: Taste buds, hair, finger and toes.

I think everyone has a unique odor.

The skin shivers. It gets goose bumps (derivation of that is WHAT) It turns blue when it is cold.

It comes in many varieties: Black, white, yellow, and tan.

Tap just below your knee and you get a knee-jerk response.

Jewish men don'y usually drink too much, but I found myself drinking a little more than I wanted to. I haven't had a drink in about five years. Machoman --- me, who once opted to fly in combat and fight bulls (did neither) --- feared what might happen to me if I had just a taste of the stuff.

I found today that Listerine has alcohol in it .

Let's go have a beer.
