I told my wife that I wish to be stuffed and mounted by a taxidermist upon my departure. She has provisionally agreed, provided that I can be put in a "natural pose", which I believe she described as "sitting on the couch and holding the remote" ;)

hehehe. You know, that's an idea I hadn't considered. That's probably my natural pose at home, too. Just as long as they don't mount my head on the wall....

Regarding bushings, I do understand that the labels applied to the object are attempts to describe real functions and interactions of its various parts, and that molecular machines really don't come with actual labels attached.:^)

Contemplating your next pic.

Cordially,

Just thought I'd post a picture of a designed object and interrupt this thread once again, to say...

It's Alamo-Girl Day!

Today marks the 5th Anniversary of the advent of Alamo-Girl in FreeRepublic.com!

"March 14, 1998 - a day that will live in famy!"

Remember the Alamo-Girl posts over the years and how they have enlightened and enriched our FRee lives!

(And remember the subject of  www.alamo-girl.com !!  "Never again!")

For two bonus points, is this natural or designed?
