Anyone read this article about how Doctors in Houston are preparing to do a face transplant? The recipient does not get to choose before you ask. They have a list of candidates and are waiting for a donor. They can't garauntee it will look the same as it did on the original owner.
I can hardly stop laughing long enough to ask "what the hell , are you talking about!"
Bill; I'm glad I brought a smile to your face. The funniest part is it's true. Thats why I posted it; it just seemed so weird to shop for a new face. Last night on the news they described how they will do it; first..they slice off the face from a cadaver including all nerves and small blood vessels.... Then they had a guy on who had a hand grafted on and he wanted it removed because it freaked him out. Oh and BTW it's not Houston it's somewhere in Ohio.
I read the article...do you remember Mel Brooks B/W movie "Young Frankestein", and the scene where Gene Wilder teach the class that his name is Frankestin actually, not Frankestein? The Adverts: "Gary Gilmores Eyes"
Your a riot; I remmember that song,, Looking through Gary Gilmore's eyes! Used to be on the radio.
yep, I remember that one too... good one Damir How bout the movie with Nicolas Cage and John Travolta where they switched faces. I thought that was a good flick actually.
Can you remmember movies well? I seem to hold onto certain flicks and I can watch others twenty times and I couldn't tell you what the ending was or who starred. I had a co-worker who kept a TV and VCR in his locker. He watched Gunga Din/ZULU/The Alamo/Any movie where small numbers of American or British soldiers would defeat thousands of third world attackers. He liked a movie called The Naked Prey; where some tribe chases a guy for five days through the Jungle. You see what movies I remmember. I started watching John Wayne recently/ Have Rio Bravo and Rooster Cogburn under the belt and now I am going for The Sons Of Katie Elder with Dean Martin as a cowboy.
No, I can't say I hold on to the movies all that well. I remember bits and pieces. Just enough to be frustrated that I should know. I pick up a movie at the rental place and say hey, how bout this one. The wife casually informs me that we've seen it! I do like to watch movies though. I like to watch all of them too. I guess the horror flicks dont thrill me a lot. I love the home theater thing. I have a pretty big screen and some good speakers and a front end to shake the walls if needed. Sometimes I think I just watch the movies to listen to the theater sound. I was on a modern day western kick a while ago. Starting with Silverado, tombstone, unforgiven....
Thats funny; she reminds you. I used to really like movies; I even went into the city to see the ones that never made it out here. Now I am too lazy. Unforgiven is a big favorite though; I like movies with some realism; not a big special effects fan. I liked Master and Commander recently; I thought they did a good job of staying with the program and whats his name..the Australian guy did a good job.
