The Tale of The Amazing Two-Headed Afghan Baby

The Tale of The Amazing Two-Headed Afghan Baby

 

As it turns out, two heads aren't better than one.

An Afghan baby born with two heads, underwent surgery to remove the extra one.
 
Young Asree Gul was born in Afghanistan a few months ago.  When she was born, she came out with something extra, a second head on the back of her functioning head.
 
Asree was born to a family of farmers in the Chaparhar District of Afghanistan.  She also has a twin sister, who was born without complication.
 
The operation war performed by Cheif Surgeon Ahmed Obain Mojadidi.  He stated "The surgery performed on young Asree was the first of its kind ever performed in this region"
 
Asree's father, Nematullah did not expect his daughter to survive the surgery.  "The doctors saved her life" he told the AFP
 
Doctors believe the extra head was the result on an undeveloped third baby sibling, a rare condition called Craniopagus Parasiticus.
 
The most famous of this rare disease happened in 2005 when a ten-month-old baby underwent surgery for the same disease.  The surgery in that case was considered a success, however, unfortunately she died of a brain infection about a year later.
 
In the case of young Asree, who's name translates to "new flower", so far the surgery seems successful.  She is recovering at home.  We certainly with her the best and a speedy recovery.

Walt Disney, George Gershwin Producing New Material, From Beyond The Grave

Walt Disney, George Gershwin Producing New Material, From Beyond The Grave

Walt Disney, George Gershwin, and even Judy Garland are all still producing new material years after death.

The story begins with 1 person, a lady named Jennifer Whisper, now age 83 from San Diego, California has a very special gift.  She gets messages from the dead.  Not just any dead, She gets messages from dead celebrities.

Whisper has claimed to receive new songs from George Gershwin and Walt Disney as well as messages from Judy Garland and Johnny Mercer.

Jennifer Whisper began her career as a publicist for dead songwriters back in the 1970s.  She noticed she had a special gift of being able to communicate with the deceased.  She began ghost writing for deceased musicians that would talk to her and relay they're works.  One night, she claims George Gershwin himself contacted her.  She has has over 100 visits since then by various big time deceased stars.

Walt Disney visited her one night with a story and a drawing of "Buddha Mouse" who is the Great Uncle of Mickey Mouse.  Another claim made by Whisper is that Marilyn Monroe adopted Jon Benet Ramsey after her grisly murder. 

Attorneys for Whisper has stated that she is treading very dangerous waters with her stories.  She does claim that these are new works by celebrities, and there is a worry that the families of the deceased may come after her for royalties.  She is making money off of the new songs and stories, even though it cannot be proven whether she is being truthful to their origins or not.

Speaking personally, I wonder what Kurt Cobain may have to say, but, I really hope I don't find out.

Next Time You Swim in a New Jersey River, Wear Kevlar Underpants!!

Next time you swim in a New Jersey River, Wear Kevlar Underpants!!
 
 
The Amazon native fish, Pacu, which sometimes mistakes human genitals for their favorite snack food of tree nuts, has been found swimming in the Passaic Park, 15 miles from New York City. 
 
-New York Daily News
 
Just when you thought things couldn't get any weirder in New Jersey, enter the Pacu, a native fish of the Amazon River has been caught in New Jersey rivers.
 
A 77 year old retired bus driver named Tom Boylan was shocked when he hooked one of these exotic fish on his line at the Third Ward Memorial Park in Passiac, NJ earlier this summer.
 
Local officials believe it was a local resident's pet that grew too large for it's tank and was released into the wild.  These fish are known as "Tank Busters" by fish enthusiasts because they grow very large, very quickly.  A small gold fish size Pacu can grow to be 55 lbs.
 
The biggest terror of this situation is that this breed of fish, which is related to the Piranha, is known to eat human testicles, thinking their actually tree nuts.
 
Recently, two men in New Guinea had they're testicles eaten off by Pacu fish while swimming in a local river.  Kinda makes you miss New Jersey doesn't it?
 
So, in closing, nest time you go swimming in New Jersey, make sure to wear a cup, or Kevlar underpants, and hope for the best.

Scientists Say "It's Normal to Want to Eat Your Baby"

"If you ever thought about consuming your baby, Don't worry, that's completely normal"
 
-Huffington Post
 
 
In one of the strangest studies I've seen in quite some time, researchers from The Christian Science Monitor extracted fresh baby smell from 2-day-old infants and presented the to two different groups of women.  15 of them were mothers and 15 of them were women who never gave birth.  The reaction from both groups were the same.
 
 
The reaction was stronger in mother than in non mothers, suggesting that child birth causes hormonal changes in mothers.  The triggers seems to be the smell of babies that triggers the reward recpeptor in the brain, that same that food also triggers, cause mothers to have the urge to eat they're babies.
 
 
As of this time we don't have any information about men in this study as they were not tested.
 
 
In closing, we do not condone the consuming of your baby, that's just wrong, but if you've thought about it, maybe your not as crazy as you thought.
