Face transplant news prompts thoughts

There was big news today, and I hope you did not miss it. A woman in Cleveland was given a face transplant. Apparently, she was horribly disfigured, and so this will surely be a wonderful thing for her. The face she got was from a woman who had died. This is the fourth face transplant in history.

At first I thought it would be very strange for the family of the dead woman -- to see that same face on another person. Oh, that would be eerie, don't you think?

But I suppose the face will look different because of the differing shape and bone structure of its new host.

Still, the thought about getting a new face prompts some thoughts, at least it did for me.

Have you seen the new movie "Australia" starring hunky, studly guy Hugh Jackman (sexiest man of the year according to People Magazine)? He looks like he came right off the cover of a romance novel, with bulging muscles and the kind of face that I believe would drive most women wild.

I have decided that if he should die (I'm not wishing it, mind you), I would like to have his face. I could workout a bit more in the gym to build up my muscles. It would be very interesting to be that good looking. I have always wondered what it would be like.

Anyway, if you know me know now and one day meet me and I look very, very different, then you will know why.
