Poll question: If You Could Have An Extra Body Part, Which Body Part Would It Be?
Yay, odd question!

Okay, here's the deal. Through the miracle of modern science, each person in American has been granted the ability to have one extra body part.

This means that people can choose to have three legs, three arms, two noses, three eyes, two livers (for the drinkers out there), two sex organs (for the freaks out there), three kidneys, ect.

Which body part do you want?

Me, I'm going for a third arm, right by my waist. I'd take four more and just become a Dr. Octapus type of person.

10. Extra Ear.
I know so many people who are in the process of or have totally lost their hearing in one or both ears. What isolation. A third ear as backup? Yeah.

17. Other: Can I be greedy and just clone myself...
If i can't, an extra arm would be helpful. Although another eye on the back of my head would be good too, but then I would have to cut my hair.

24. I rather content with my parts as they are, but...
I would probably go with additional dendrites within my brain to ease in making faster neural connections. They're pretty good now, but there's always room for improvement.

Initially, I thought a heart. Mine's a bit battered and bruised, but I'm too strong to let it be broken.

25. As a Juggler, an extra arm ...
sure would come in "handy".

Lets see, I can Juggle 7 balls with 2 hands (3.5 per hand). With an extra arm (and presumable hand) I should be able to Juggle 10 balls without much problem.

Cheers
Drifter

26. I'd like an extra lung.
Just think of the endurance you'd have with more oxygen getting into your bloodstream.

Although one time, I dreamed that a big second butt was mysteriously growing on my left leg. I blame the Thai food that I ate earlier that night.
