In high school Science, we did a little survey on the various dominant and recessive gene traits we all exhibited. We come to attached earlobes. My friend is like, "-Whoah!", and so the teacher comes over to inspect my ear. "That is the most attached earlobe I have ever seen," he proclaims, and now the whole class wants to see my earlobe. I get it from my dad. So, since that time, I have always checked for attached earlobes on my favorite actors ;D, and then feel all loved and connected when they're there. We are in the Recessive Attached Earlobes Club, and we are weird. Michael is in that club. It's harder to tell with him, but while his lobe curves in a little, it does not keep curving and create a small space between his lobe and the side of his head, like most people have. The attachment is not as magnificent as mine, of course ;D, but it will do. Attached Earlobes Fan Club1. henryrocks Member OF Recessive Attached-Earlobes Club -include pics! ;D It's really tricky ro get a good picture of your ear, though 1. henryrocks

I have free earlobes. (Side-note: Anyone want some? ;D) (This thread makes me want to start 'The Official Spine-Problems Thread' (hey, the more obscure the better, eh?). Ben had his spine tumour and I have my scoliosis. ;D)

Here are my earlobes My right one is detached a bit (I pulled on it, so you can't see it) My left one is totally attached.

Apparently there's only a 25% chance of your getting attached ears. So you have many, many good people on your side Ones I can remember from Google Image search: Aretha Franklin George Washington Shakespeare Pablo Picasso Charlie Chaplin Meryl Streep You, however, also have Hitler, Mussolini, and Benedict Arnold, so I think that evens it out

Shakespeare! Excellent!
Chaplin! Shares my birthday with him.
Scarily, I was very interested in Hitler and his rise to power some years ago. I mean, it just seems so fascinating how one insignificant man of humble beginnings could put a whole nation under his spell and cause such lasting damage to the world!
I still say I ought to start an Official Spine-Problems Thread. I will probably be the only one in it, though (along with Ben, of course). ;D

Go ahead! I'd be in it, while my situation would be nothing like either of yours. ;D Except that these 'official' threads all seem to be fan clubs of some sort (And Ben's spine problems are over, seemingly.) I think Hitler must be the real-life deranged version of Ben! I read that it was difficult if not impossible for him to show any affection or emotion (am I getting this wrong?) - one of his men closest to him said he made awkward motions of that sort toward one person/animal, can't remember who. Yes, that is interesting. Have you watched tapes of his speeches?

Yes, I've seen a video clip. I wish I could speak like that when giving a speech...

I don't think we of the MEFB board care enough about him to notice his ears. ;D
