Despite the fact that at this stage in my life, I don't take any major mood altering or pyschotropic drugs and to the best of my imagination don't work out of any flashbacks, I nonetheless often daydream about odd things. I was thinking to myself that it was unfair that Monkeys got to have these cool prehensile tails and we don't. Not that I want to live in trees, but it would be convenient to be able to swing around a fence now and again as opposed to having to walk around. I think it would be cool to be able to bolg away with your hands and use your tail to feed yourself lunch at the same time. Remote controls that are often just 6 inches or so would no longer be a problem. It would also be helpful when you have to do the beer run at a ballgame and you're trying to juggle 4 cups of beer, 3 bags of peanuts and 2 hotdogs.

Anybody else wish they had a prehensile tail? Ever wish that your knees bent backward instead of forward? Any bizzare thoughts creep into your daydreams?

I'm currently reading this great book called, "A Prehensile Tale." I strongly suggest that everyone here checks it out at www. amazon.com/aprehensiletale

I was never a child. I was born mature, and my prehensile was hanging.

You're missing the marketing possibilities. Fashion accessories for your prehensile tail. "Pimp my tail" parties. For me just being able to hang from the ceiling and blog upside down would be enough.

Countless woman have accused me of having a prehensile third leg (if that kinda sorta qualifies)? It sure helps me and them get a lot of extra work done. And, that's no dream, it's reality. PS---the Castro area sure does warp everyone's mindset in the bay area doesn't it? LMMAO
