    So the fictional spinach-eating navy man wasn’t what he was and wasn’t all that he was.

    I thought hypervelocity stars babbled across talk shows at the speed of sound.

    Burke supplied bodies to medical schools. And when he didn’t have any, he improvised. One of my ancestors did the same thing, but they never made him into a book.

    I can see the resemblance, but who was the inspiration for Olive Oyl and Bluto. I’ve never see a woman with a neck that long in my life.

    Look up bound in human skin. More books than you might imagine. The Burk skin book was one of the most recent.

    So we have to worry about a high velocity star might intersect our star system one millennium.

    I’ve heard the inspiration for Olive Oyl must have been a crack-addicted woman.

    Old National Geographic magazines had pics ot tribes in Africa, where the women had rings around their necks to elongate them.

    Just like today’s fad of ear plugs which make that hole bigger. They can’t hold a candle to the Africans that had VERY LARGE ear lobes. Nothing is ever new.
