I am thinking #1 Anemia or #2 Polycythemia. What's to prevent that?

Y'all crack me up!:chuckle

How about bracelets alernating foreskins and cords? Call them circles of life. AHHHH!

If you link them together just right, and make them long enough, you could hang them on the X-Mass tree like garland with the shrunkin tree ornaments.

And we could string the mucus plugs like popcorn:D

Then they could be collectively known as the Garland of Life and for pets why we could even string snausages or whisker lickin' cat treats in the mix! The beautiful Christmas treat that's yummy and fun for all to eat. (okay now I am quite sick!). Somehow the lovely red velvet bag goes along w/ the christmas theme you know, too. Doesn't it? Laughter at the expense of crackpots, the best kind of all. My goodness, how about a recipe to stuff the Christmas turkey w/ the placenta? I am sure some nutty person has done this!

"The umbilical cord was a highly prized fetish; even today it is so regarded in Africa. Mankind's first toy was a preserved umbilical cord. Set with pearls, as was often done, it was man's first necklace."

See? PEARLS. THAT'S where we're going wrong. Forget the whole Earth-mother stereotype- these babies are marketable to the pageboy-and-pearls set. We're going to make a fortune. :D
