You...Aye, you could design for physical perfection. You may even 'succeed' in obtaining the physique of the finest gods. Obviously, not the ones with tentacles or big teeth...Sadly, what will reside between it's ears is open to conjecture. I know with animals, the more pure bred they are, the more unstable they are, some breeds are borderline dangerously mad.TonyFhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14356306581977054156noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6745817778350624453.post-79002059571430907242015-11-01T07:12:38.879+13:002015-11-01T07:12:38.879+13:00And I forgot to mention the 'cardboard cathedr...And I forgot to mention the 'cardboard cathedral'Dioclesehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11520854651324331134noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6745817778350624453.post-90046127445905711572015-11-01T07:12:03.789+13:002015-11-01T07:12:03.789+13:00As you know, I was there a while back too.

Those chairs are a poignant statement reminding us of all the people who died.<br /><br />I was also struck by the state of the Cathedral, the rain causing further havoc while the inside is open to the elements and politicians can't make their bloody minds up what to do with it. <br /><br />Glad to see those giraffes are now gone tho'Dioclesehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11520854651324331134noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6745817778350624453.post-37087741254941135642015-11-01T00:36:42.741+13:002015-11-01T00:36:42.741+13:00Oh, and, "Occidental"Oh, and, "Occidental"Sterculian Rhetorichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14471982606603075150noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6745817778350624453.post-55091537319404164362015-11-01T00:31:52.112+13:002015-11-01T00:31:52.112+13:00".......but in the end what people really wan...".......but in the end what people really want is conformity to an unnatural norm........"<br /><br />Ain't that the truth. And 'unnatural norms' change faster than you can say, "High Fashion Magazine"<br />Who choose the 'unnatural norms' for any given socio-cultural construct? It can be argued that Hugh Hefner defined beauty for an entire culture. Some things remain relatively unchanged for many decades. But, in a 'change-for-change-sake' consumerist world, designing your child to suit current fashion will be dangerous. Unfortunately, it takes 20 to 30 years for your designer child to be 'completed' I hope the fashion for which the child was designed is not too passé. Those children 'designed' in the 80s now have big hair and squared shoulders.<br /><br />http://www.buzzfeed.com/briangalindo/25-photos-of-80s-hairstyles-so-bad-theyre-actually-good#.ssPyD6ra8<br /><br />https://www.google.ca/search?q=cyndi+lauper+dress&es_sm=93&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ved=0CBwQsARqFQoTCISF5cnN7MgCFUalHgodL_AEFg&biw=1093&bih=506<br /><br />"......In the end the folk, who can, will get exactly what they want because they can and because they have always had that privilege;........"<br /><br />And there is nowt wrong with that, unless you're a Commie.<br /><br />Regarding your predictions for the pet market, I'm not so sure. If I am not mistaken, the existing Vietnamese Miniature Potbelly pig has been banned as a pet in many jurisdictions here in the North America.
