Something To Chew On
Scientists have come up with a way to regenerate mammalian teeth--they've demonstrated it by growing pigs' teeth in rats' intestines.
Eeeewwwww...
Brush early and often. As one wag at Free Republic said, "it kind of eliminates the need for a mouth..."
Seriously, this could mean a revolution in dentistry. No more crowns, bridges, dentures or implants. Just regrown teeth, like sharks.

Rat's teeth aren't the only things they're growing these days.

PETA would rather *be* apes than human- better karma, in their bizarre view...

Great!
Now liberals run the risk of getting their heads bit off when they stick 'em in their @sses...!

Put 'em in cow's innards and they can chew their cud while grazing. Bovine multi-tasking! What a civilization!
