But that's an old scientific fact!

There is a rhyme in Germany and it goes like this:

"An der Nase eines Mannes
Erkennt man seinen Johannes"


Which translates loosely as something like "Richard's nose is Dick's size."

Of course, both organs share commonalities. Not only can both smell, but their connective tissue degrades over time. While not the most tidy of appearances, the ensuing process does create an impression of increased size. Also, alas!, gravity takes its toll, with age things hang lower reinforcing the above perception.

So there is hope for all of us.

But that you only find out about this now, liebe Amerikaner, was it another thing you weren't allowed to learn at school - like the Evolution Theory?  :popcorn: Well, here it's more a case of devolution.

We've taken too much for granted ... and all the time it had grown ...
From techno seeds we first planted ... evolved a mind of its own ...

I guess that explains why Jimmy Durante seemed so chipper. Karl Malden must have been something else too.  ;D
Contrary to what James Bond says, a good Gibson should be stirred, not shaken.

Groupies privileged with a second night with him would gratefully exclaim ...

You might expect Uwe to grow up, but it's highly unlikely I ever will....... :-*
