Fucking eyeballs!
Eye haven't posted a comment in forever!
Eye caramba! A glass eye pic taken by yrs truly down at HMNH recently (not as nice as the one you posted).
I am probably revealing more about the sick sense of humor which runs through my family than I should, but my grandfather (a small town family doctor) used to have a tie tack made from his grandmother's glass eye. My mother hates that story; I personally wish that it had not been lost some years ago.
First time visitor to the site, by the way, and I really like the direction you are going. Keep up the good work.
