No, it's not Pink Floyd, but I needed surgery, I'd want these guys trying to wake me up after it was over:

This guest post from James Kakalios got me thinking — if anyone wants to take advantage of this prominent platform I've lucked into for the purpose of publishing their views, I'd be willing to give them an occasional opportunity. I wouldn't want to turn the place into wall-to-wall other people (it'…
I don't know. They seem to come in a range of sizes; when they're as large as a small male penis, I suppose it might be unexpected, perhaps a little confusing, perhaps a little ambiguous to people intolerant of the idea that the human form is found in intermediate shapes.
