It's a good thing the other guy had a spare to share

Actually, I was wondering if they had a one-per-patient policy. Having a "Kerberos" or a "Ghidra" would be quite amusing . . . a great Halloween gag! But it might get you on the sex-offenders list.

I think men would sign up on the donor list. Think about it . . . you can keep on fucking, even after you have died!

Now I am waiting for the post, "Why is this News for Nerds" . . .

Submission + - World's 1st Penis Transplant Done in South Africa (webmd.com)

PolygamousRanchKid writes: The world's first successful penis transplant has been performed by surgeons in South Africa, Bloomberg News reported Friday. The 21-year-old recipient has made a full recovery and regained all functions in the transplanted organ. The nine-hour operation was done Dec. 11 by surgeons from Stellenbosch University and Cape Town's Tygerberg Hospital, the university said Friday in a statement.

The unidentified patient had his penis amputated three years ago in a life-saving procedure after he developed complications from a traditional circumcision.

"Our goal was that he would be fully functional at two years and we are very surprised by his rapid recovery," said Dr. Andre van der Merwe, head of the university's urology division, who led the surgical team.

Comment Re:No time zones, no DST, centons (Score 2) 277

The problem with DST is the way we implementing it. When you do a "Fall? Fall back!" nobody complains about having an extra hour to sleep. "Spring? Spring forward!" Sucks for everyone. They are all grumpy because they lost an hour of sleep.

So my solution would be, instead of turning clocks ahead an hour in the spring, turn them back 23 hours. That day is wasted. Gone.

Try again later. "User error. Please replace user and try again."
