"Although 'two-faced' or 'two-headed' kittens survive only a few days, a two-snouted pig called "Ditto" (2 snouts, 2 mouths, 3 eyes) survived to maturity. Several genetic disorders cause extremely wide-set eyes (hypertelorism). One such disorder is due to mutations in a gene that normally limits the activity of a protein called sonic hedgehog. A lack of sonic hedgehog causes cleft lip. Hypertelorism syndrome causes very broad noses, noses with two tips, or even two noses. Once the face of the embryo widens beyond a certain point, whole structures (e.g. nose, mouth) are duplicated. Ditto, a Duroc pig born in Iowa, had two snouts, two tongues, two oesophagi and three eyes. It may have started out as two twin embryos that fused, but because the duplication was confined to the face and forebrain it is most likely that it grew from a single embryo with a very wide head. Ditto died in 1998 and his head is preserved in a jar at the University of California, San Francisco. Ditto died of pneumonia, apparently caused by inhaling food into one snout while the other snout was eating. Two-faced individuals caused by sonic hedgehog aside, statistically, conjoined twins are more often female than male. This is because a female embryo is more likely to split into twins than a male embryo. Sometimes the split is incomplete, leading to conjoined individuals."
I've copied the whole paragraph for viewing pleasure.
So I was at work today, minding my own business, when boss-guy went over to Rob who is the other guy that works in the computer area (We're the only 3). Rob was working on this Spanish poster for a client... coincidentally, he speaks no Spanish. Luckily for him boss-guy is fluent and decided to help him go over the work and make sure the customer sent grammatically correct material to us. This, my friends, is where my heart stopped. You see, boss-guy's way of helping Rob was to give an impromptu Spanish lesson to him....and I was more turned on than I have ever been before. You might be asking yourself what exactly in this situation was a turn on for me. Was it his perfectly accented Spanish? Was it his quiet laughter every time Rob made a mistake in pronunciation? Was it his patience and understanding with Rob as he mangled boss-guy's native tongue? NO. IT WAS NONE OF THESE THINGS. See, I could deal with those. I find certain accents to be a turn on already, and there are certain guys that have such a sexy laugh that I've wanted to jump them (Alan Rickman, Jason Issacs, and Patrick Stewart to name a few). These things are no big deal to me, and I don't really think boss-guy fits into these categories for me at all. No my friends, what turned me on was one thought that entered my head after listening in to their conversation.
Oh my God, with his patience in teaching, he'd be so great with children.
YES
It was a turn-on to me because he could aid and coach any possible children he had. I found myself turning off my ipod to listen as he helped explain terms to my co-worker. When I realized what I was doing, I almost cried (literally, my eyes were watery).
I plan to kill myself now before I dry hump the next guy I see bandaging his bastard's boo-boo. Pray for my soul, and pray hard.
I also had rotten milk and putrified banannas explode on me.
Do you ever wish that it could count as sexual harassment if the creepy guy that works with you smiles at you funny and stares? Just a thought.

What color are you? (Amazingly detailed & accurate--with pics!)
You are green. Perhaps one of the most balanced of all the colors. By balanced, I mean balanced in both bad and good parts. Let me elaborate: You're a natural, and somewhat superficial person. You're extremely generous, but, to add to the confusion, you're frugal and stingy. You're a forgiving, but jealous person. You're imaginative, but still logical. At sometimes, you're a complete neat-freak, and other times, you're a total slob. You're very stable, but undependable. But onto the other traits that are associated with this color... You're a stubborn person, simply put. Do you believe in Feng Shui? Green is closely related to the thought of having a balanced environment, you know. When in a bad situation, you're painfully pessimistic, and when you're in a good situation, you're extremely optimistic. A fairly outgoing and amused person, you enjoy talking to people, and hearing their thoughts on different things. As a plus, when people hang around you, it seems like time passes by all the more quickly.
