Taz, I think that's why you see a lot of nonsense postings on threads like this. Some of us are the same way, but then we feel like we oughta post something.

I'm usually really good at adding to the nonsense. This thread just left me speechless.

I've really never considered getting feathers.

But I have thought about other things....

As I get older (and older) I find that I get cold real easy. Hard to get warm.

I would like to be a bear. A big, shaggy bear. They always look warm to me.
And nobody picks on a bear. So if Quintinp gets their feathers, I want some
bear fur.

Hmmmm, when I saw that title, I starting thinking in praticalities on how to make it actually happen!

I was thinking you would have to implant metal anchors under the skin that would allow the wearer to push the end of the feather into an opening that would hold the shaft tight enough that it wouldnt fall out, but still be able to relase the feather if the wearer wanted to remove or replace the feathers, or to be able to wash whatever area they have the implants. I couldnt imagine wearing wet feathers- they stink! (maybe its just the chook stinkin', not the actual feathers?)

I think it could be done, for alot of money and time, you can get almost anything done these days.

This what I get for being married to an inventor- I never think anything is impossible, the way just hasnt been invented yet. I've also learned to NEVER laugh at someone elses' ideas or dreams, you just NEVER know where the next multi-million dollar idea is gonna come from!

Want an example? Ever heard of the Instyler? Proctor and Gamble (multi-billion $ comp) laughed at the product and told the inventors it would NEVER sell. Well, the guys made over 108 MILLION dollars in 24 months (thats EACH guy- 2 of them!)

So, feather implants? Not for me, but maybe for somebody!

It would probably be easier to attach fur than feathers. Just need some adhesive and an iron.

YAY!!! I added nonsense!!

I have a curling iron Taz. Would I be a curly bear? I don't know why I have a
curling iron...I don't have enough hair to curl anymore.

And if we could add enough feathers...could we fly? Talk about going green,
saving energy. We could sell our cars and fly everywhere. Quintnip might have
an ideal there.

*everyone could fly except me. I'm a bear, and bears can't fly.

I...uh...hmm.

*scratches head*

hmm....UH...



*mind has been blown up.*

Yes, you can be a curly bear. The flying thing may work but we would have to post signs to warn people not to get too close to the sun. Remember Iccarus (spelling?)

actually from what I recall in some tattoo and body modification magazines you can get piercings along the back and arms for a type of insert which then a feather is slid into. the feathers can be taken out (and should be) and changed out.

I've always had an interest in tattoos and extreme body modifications, yet I only have 1 piercing and no tats....go figure.
