I couldn't believe this when I saw the photo. You've got to check it out:

I mean, it's great that they can do this. But if your mind doesn't go into futuristic Night Gallery mode when you see this, I'll be surprised. Made me want to puke.

That is truly nauseous. But no less fascinating for it.

I had heard of this although I hadn't actually seen any of the pictures. Yeah, it's great that we can help the disfigured like this, but part of me just rebels at the thought. I don't know . . . maybe I'm just too old to adapt to some technological advancements.

And yet all I can think of is some twisted version of the future where Mice turn the tables on us and grow mouse body parts off of humans... maybe this is the first step in their diabloical plans.

Pinky and the Brain anyone?

"What are we going to do tomorrow, Brain?"
"The same thing we do every day, Pinky. Plot to take over the world."

Awesome thought, Vaporwolf. Truly creepy.

Or maybe the mice growing human parts continue to do so in their own time, and construct a mouse-infested human automaton.

All I can picture is Rob Schneider in "The Animal".

And I just saw an ad for a new Eddie Murphy movie in which a crew of tiny people ride in and operate their "vehicle," which is a large Eddie Murphy robot.
