sliced bread #2

Some look at things that are, and ask why. I dream of things that never were and ask why not.

that special someone...

--------------------

Schizophrenic genes may be sexually advantageous. A study indicates that creative people and unconventional thinkers get more sex partners. Previous studies showed that creative people are more likely than others to be schizophrenic or have schizophrenic relatives. Authors' hypothesis: Schizophrenia is disadvantageous to passing on your genes, but if you don't get the full-blown disease, schizophrenia-related genes that cause unconventional thinking make you more attractive, and that's why the genes and the disease persist.

If there were an award for "Best Creative Content on a Huge Corporation's Web Site to Distract You From the Fact That We're in the Gypsum, Chemical, Timber and Paper Industry," Georgia-Pacific would win it. G-P makes Brawny paper towels, and the brand has had a mascot called the Brawny Man since 1974 living on the plastic paper towel wrapper and in ads. No name, just the Brawny Man. Now, at the end of a long day, when your boss has been mean to you and your boyfriend doesn't understand and you could just cry for no reason at all, you can go to the Innocent Escapes website and be soothed and pampered by the B. Man himself.

Or watch him build a rocking horse. Gold... pure gold, I tell ya!

and finally, here it is... your moment of zen...
