"Uglies is teen SF, where everyone gets plastic surgery when they are 16 to become perfectly beautiful. Oh, and dumb as rocks. It's the perfect book for teens - addresing the importance of appearance, and how it trumps everything else.

I would never dare compete with BMRB when it comes to melons, Jackie.
Your and Dave's running picture battle has had me giggling all day...
Is that not freakish?!?! and VILE! I am sure they are natural, (anort) and that the areolas are bigger than my dinner plates...
I'm thinking about starting an entire undergraduate program focusing on the fine art of tree hugging. With tea hugging as a minor. If you're ever looking for a professorship, let me know, ok???? :)
Such a cute avatar! There's something comforting in knowing that the future was captured in that pic.... Unfortunately, the only yearbook picture I have of me is with two Cheetos up my nostrils from 8th grade. No scans available ... sorry!
