Hey Baby

“…under ideal conditions this baby will grow 80 feet tall, photosynthesize, and crush terrorist babies beneath its chubby heel…” –from “Hey Baby” by Tony Brewer. (U.S. Air Force photo/Staff Sgt Eric T. Sheler)

"Man is certainly stark mad: he cannot make a flea, yet he makes gods by the dozens."

–Michel de Montaigne
