Ostrasized, again!
For those of you
who just have to know
about
the courtship behavior
of ostriches towards humans....

And all the things
you never wanted to know about...
these things are now readily available
for your reading pleasure,
thanks to the internet.

Follow the above link.
Learn about the IG NOBEL prize winners for 2002.

And as for the contemplation of the proverbial belly button to see if it contains lint?
The research results are in:

You're more likely to have BBL
if you're male, older, hairy,
and have an innie.

Now I can go to sleep tonight,
knowing the likelihood of BBL
in my BB is minimal,
being female.
No comment on the other parts of my database.

Kacy,
I still like the bumper sticker that says "I may have an innie but I drive an Audi"! LMBO Is that camel hair lint? Sleep tight.

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.

I DO know that Emus think that we humans are very sexy.

Weird, huh?

Ever been to an Emu ranch, Kacy?
They don't seem to care about how you look, your breath, your gender, nothin'.

never turn your back on an Emu!

very weird critters.
