Do you know what a Mexican jumping bean is ?

A Mexican jumping bean is an egg. Some fucker for some reason came along and roasted that egg and the baby inside wants out. Wouldn't you ? First of all you're burning up so you figure " I'm getting the hell outta here ! " So you start strugging to break the shell that Mother Nature had provided for your protection. Not only is it hot as hell, it is about time to live your life. But that is never going to happen because some Men figured out how to make fire, and some of those up and decided to burn you - JUST FOR FUN !

It doesn't sound like alot of fun, poor thing in there with it's whole life - no longer - ahead of it. Imprisoned for eternity without ever having commited a crime. How could it ?

There should be a law - in Mexico. There should be no laws in my country. But that's beside the point because really, everybody just does what they want anyway. Law or no law, this practice is incredibly inhumane, and the results are presented to the children, which no doubt hardens their hearts and is part of what has made the world what it is today. Stop the insanity. Write your congressman. Call Amnesty International. I'm serious, they have to get some treaties in place to stop this mass murderous group who subject the young to a trial by fire and life imprisonment for no good reason at all.

Sorry, I don't take donations at this time, but once I can I'll let you know where to send your extra money. Show the world by example, stop the madness. And prey "for" the lowly creature that suffered and perished for the amusement of humans.

Y'know, T., sometimes you get a wild hair up your ass. Actually, more often than not.

Drunk or not, I'm really not sure where you come up with this crap..... Now, now, Lance. You made an early New Year's resolution... wait at least until the 1st to break it.

Okay. I'll try again......

T.; I thought "That's odd. I had a MJB or two as a kid in the early 50s. I wonder how 'bad' I was back then."

T.; Wiki is your friend.....

Playing with/testing the beans
-----------------------------
When the bean is abruptly warmed, for instance by being held in the palm of the hand, the larva twitches and spasms, pulling on the threads and causing the characteristic hop. "Jump" is often an exaggeration, but the bean does noticeably move around.
The beans should become active if one holds them in the hand (out of the box) for a few minutes.

That's from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mexican_jumping_bean

Please read the whole article and you'll soon find there's NOTHING "bad" about a MJB. The larva can easily live its full life cycle inside the "true" bean even tho' "played with" by kids. An MJB IS a bean - a bean that's been invaded by the larva of a moth! There is NO "roasting" to produce them..... They are harvested and have to be separated from the "un-invaded" beans to be packaged and shipped to kids for their amusement. Once it was explained to me, I quickly lost interest.

============
Oh, hell.... resolutions are MADE to be broken. LOL!
============
I repeat

Y'know, T., sometimes you get a wild hair up your ass. Actually, more often than not.

Drunk or not, I'm really not sure where you come up with this crap.....

"CHARTER MEMBER: Lance's Fag Hags! "

Sure, I understand. But it took me a long time to figure out a joke that wasn't too racist, sexist or even too gross for CM, and now y'all wrecked it. ( you know how hard that is ? ) Thank you very much.

Enjoy your pieces of coal.

Then it wasn't too humorous, now, was it?

In my world, humor is defined as a "pleasant suprise." Your mileage WILL differ. I guess then, in my world, horror would be defined as an "unpleasant surprise."

Termmy, the fact that I saw your OP on the marquee and came directly to comment, is THE prime reason I made a suggestion that the Marquee "should" show the forum.
