That lion wool is looking pretty reasonable right about now

Thursday, March 29, 2007

Just a few days after my post exploring the viability of lion wool, Duck was so kind enough to alert me to this article.  

Scientists create a sheep that's 15% human.

The possibilities for wool are truly limitless.

Now, now, we should all know better than to play around with sheep's genetics....it's all been documented:

Truth, apparently, is stranger than fiction! And more expensive, to boot. Man, people are so scary.

On the other hand, I love the artist renderings bwahahahahahahahaha.

Tangentially related, but not really. Funny anyway.

Great picture--I love how you're looking furtively to the side. And it also looks like you have a lovely little goatee going on there. Hip sheep. Sheepniks. (I really should've stopped after great picture.)

I cannot stop laughing at that picture. P-funk thinks that the true yarn opportunities lie in breeding children for wool production ;)
