- How stone-agey. I had a cryopreservation team immediately reattach
- with micro-robot waldoes all the veins and arteries of my prepuce upon
- detachment to cryo-preservation fluids so that upon my my demise I
- could be regenerated wholly by a computer-mediated macro-protein
- sequenator based on the extended kirlean fields from the fleshy
- protuberance. At worst, I could have my brain and spinal cord
- enveloped in the teased and tissue-cultured cellular D-aminomatrix
- until such time as a Theodore, Simon, and Alvin Toffler - inspired
- Post-Past shock treatment could condense my physical presence around
- the primitive neo-chordate-like organism. Some have hypothesized that
- in the future, mood-ring oscillators won't be enough to generate human
- beings from non-erectile penis flesh, but who are we pre post-past
- beings to make judgements on what possibly couldn't not happen.
-
- As for the arty femorality of non-erectile penile flesh 'reduction'
- surgery performed on himfants, I suspect it is merely a fig-newton of
- force that our cult-ture of phallocentrality wants to exert in the
- direction of 'more is best'. After all, I suspect that not all
- cry-and-hue-men want to be initiated into the heady world of docking.
- And I don't mean your father's Chris-Craft. Or do I?
