ION, this is just freaky. And cool.
Conjoined twins with shared brains can pass sensory information to one another
Adding to the conundrum, of course, are their linked brains, and the mysterious hints of what passes between them. The family regularly sees evidence of it. The way their heads are joined, they have markedly different fields of view. One child will look at a toy or a cup. The other can reach across and grab it, even though her own eyes couldn't possibly see its location. "They share thoughts, too," says Louise. "Nobody will be saying anything," adds Simms, "and Tati will just pipe up and say, 'Stop that!' And she'll smack her sister." While their verbal development is delayed, it continues to get better. Their sentences are two or three words at most so far, and their enunciation is at first difficult to understand. Both the family, and researchers, anxiously await the children's explanation for what they are experiencing.
Why the fuck do they think Obama would be invading India anyway?
Oh dear, PC, man, I'm sorry... your folks are more hooked up than anyone thought.
Hope you like your new wife.
Maybe Obama responded to one of those spams - you know, that say, "Increase the size of your government naturally!"
Bwahaha!
You may not like what that person is saying but if you can't respect their right to say it, your the one with the problem.
Yes, freedom of speech includes the right of every American to speak freely about any stupid or wrongheaded thing they wish. But it also grants those of us with more than two brain cells to rub together the right to freely say "I respect your constitutional right to say and/or believe that stupid and wrongheaded thing you just said. NOW LET ME EXERCISE MY CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT TO EDUCATE YOU WITH SOME FACTS."

I like ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww.
It also bugs me with people confuse freedom of speech with freedom from criticism; only one of those is a right. I'm looking at you, Palin.

There's a really good reason for that.

And freedom to have a national cable television show from which you can spew your free (if stupid) speech!

In my continuing trend of detailing every day why I adore high school kids that I am substitute teaching: I have an AP class right now, which is always great, and they are all working on packets on satire, and all of a sudden I note that one group is having an in-depth discussion of the lyrics to "Bad Romance" and "Poker Face".
