I am stealing from WillRavel*. Happens all the time in science. Good ideas that someone doesnt run with until one day...they decide they do want to clone Baraka Guru! Lets start with his genes and work our way through is life!


Baraka Guru was born into wealth, the child of two strangers. He was bred to be everything. His genes were strong and manly, and he knew innately to lift his little finger while slurping tea. If you looked carefully, you could see that they remembered to add pockets to his test tube. They were built in and he could carry his own screwdriver while naked.

At what point can we add cherubs from Renaissance paintings?

I will come into this thread for acts of clarification. The notes I will add here will help bridge the gap between academic musings and practical applications regarding my biological wonders.

For starters, they aren't "pockets," they're "flesh packs." And I don't use them to carry screwdrivers or any other sort of mechanical implement. I use them to carry sandwiches, trail mix, and other sources of calories and nutrients that are to be consumed at the opportune time.

And as for cherubs from Renaissance paintings, where exactly to you intend on putting them? This isn't akin to some sort of gerbil fetish, is it?

Although I do raise my pinky finger whilst slurping tea, the real function is more than aesthetic. It acts as a way of testing the wind. This way I can determine whether there is more tea brewing somewhere by picking up its scent on the breeze.

Well... see... they're always floating about... and I thought that they might cheer you up at times. Who would not want cherubs?

Gerbils? I see no detectable gerbil infestation. I don't think it's anything to worry about. If an out-break should occur, spatulas and gerbil spray will clear that up right away.
