    ...Ladies with saggy bodies, but pert B**bs,
    ...men and women with saggy skin and unreadable tattoos

    ....grey haired men with two toned hair where their hair transplant is.

    ....they say that ears continue to grow with age, can u image those with ear stretchers, how big will their ear holes be!

    Extreme it is! Can't stop thinking if this is all a prelude for implanting the mark of the beast as written in the Scriptures...

    Have a blessed weekend Tracy! Hello to your HD too!

    I'd probably be allergic to the new stuff. My only question on the magnets is if he would have problems with blood pooling in his wrist. Yep, I think about strange things like that. :P

    I would never follow suit. I always distance myself away from technology when I could and I enjoy that time just completely detached from this fast changing world of technological advancement.
