i hate soothing British voices
A few minutes ago, Child figured out how to get internet on his Playstation and is watching youtube on my TV. This is not interesting yet.
He's watching youtube where a snake is currently eating a "goat thing" (Child: Something like Bambi?) while a soothing male British voice is narrating the way the snake drops his jaw and how the stomach acids dissolve flesh and bone. This has been five minutes of my life I am never going to get over.
(Child: He ate Bambi!)
I cannot say when I was a child and visualizing my future, this ever came up.

I'm a firm believer that every next generation has a stronger stomach than the one before it.

From:See, I go to school in a county that has some of the finest community colleges in the country (Maricopa county in AZ) and have never heard of such awesomeness here. As I recall human cadavers aren't the easiest to get ahold of or deal with, is the thing, and so the idea of having them available to undergrads of any kind, much less frosh/sophmores, is astonishing.
...so I may have thought it was wickedly cool, that time I got to see an actual human cadaver when my alternative medicine class visited the Naturapathic medical school's campus; I was further thrilled in a later class -- the anatomy course in my massage therapy program -- showed video of a dissection of a human cadaver.
Possibly going into medicine has a pre-requisite of being-fucking-morbid. *g*

From:Is cool. *g* I understand frustration. My parents are not frustrated with my path exactly so much as going "...well. The tuition's going to be fun to pay for." *wry*

From:Hey, at least Child wasn't watching one of the ones where the adorable little cubs get killed/eaten/die of hunger.
Brilliant programmes - the BBC wildlife people are amazing. I admit I couldn't watch the series all about insects though.
