One. Two. Three??

Woman Discovers Third Breast After Giving Birth

Jasmine Mamiya, a mother of two, was shocked to learn she had developed a third breast after giving birth to her second child. While recovering in the hospital, a lactation consultant pointed out what appeared to be a nipple growing under her armpit — something Mamiya initially thought was just a skin tag.
The consultant explained that during pregnancy, it’s possible for some women to grow extra breast tissue along what’s called the “milk line” — a vertical path running from the armpits to the groin. These can sometimes form a full third breast, complete with a nipple, and even have the ability to produce milk.

Check out the whole story. There's a video clip at the link. It's less than whelming.

The NY Post story on this starts off in true Horde style:
"Jasmine Mamiya was in udder disbelief."

Central Florida man caught in ‘sexual performance’ with vacuum, deputies say

An Oviedo man was arrested this week after he was caught engaging in a “sexual performance” with a vacuum cleaner, according to the Osceola County Sheriff’s Office.
In a release, deputies said they responded to Grassendale Street in Kissimmee’s Windsor Hills Resort on Jan. 22 after receiving reports of a man “exposing his sexual organs in front of a residence.”
“The victims that observed this behavior provided a statement and a cell phone recording of a male, partially clothed, in front of a residence, engaged in a sexual performance with a vacuum cleaner,” the release reads.

Preparations are underway for the worldwide kicky-ball event happening later this year. Los Angeles is attempting to cover up graffiti in some areas. How's that working out for them?

Taggers target 'graffiti-proof' ivy installed along 101 Freeway ahead of FIFA World Cup

With the FIFA World Cup months away, Caltrans has been spending millions of dollars to clean up trash and graffiti on local freeways, but one effort to stop street art doesn't appear to be working.
Two weeks ago, Caltrans crews installed artificial ivy on the walls of the 101 Freeway in Downtown Los Angeles to cover up and hopefully deter graffiti. But, taggers have already left their mark.
To cover up the graffiti, Caltrans crews are installing artificial ivy on the walls. There are mixed opinions on whether or not it's a good idea.

Contained in the story is an example of California ridiculousness.

Due to a mural and related agreements at this location and several walls along U.S. 101 in downtown Los Angeles, Caltrans is not legally allowed to paint over or remove graffiti.

I can't wait to not watch the World Cup this year.

Its not just 30 minutes at the start, which is also a thing because there are people *sitting* on posts reading the Cafe because they know the ONT is coming. Its also about the east coast and central time people who are eventually checking out because they have to go to bed. 30 minutes earlier means they're around and reading and posting for 30 minutes longer.

Knew a guy who would do inspections of repossessed houses, and said one house had a whole section of the wall of one bedroom sawn open, and the wiring, and whole-house vacuum system laid open and needing patching and repair.
He looked up incident reports in the neighborhood and found the EMTs had been summoned at one point to the address to release the young gentleman of the house from having his tally-whacker stuck in the vacuum system for some reason.

104 Great ONT, Doof. Gorgeous snow picture makes me sad. I want what everyone else has, called: winter. Vs cold with no snow. Life goes on. Next winter better be an improvement. I continue to pray for snow/rain and have hope.

I LOVE GLENN FREY.

Agree totally with the conservative woman in that the wacko liberal pierced women are latching on to something. To belong. I like the nitwit who said Good was shot because! she was a lesbo! No, not quite, try again!

I think many lesbos and liberal, pierced, green-haired women with pronouns simply never had a guy look at them or like them. Or sex. But I don't waste a lot of time worrying about them and wish they'd go away instead and be quiet without screams and whistles.

Doof, even I get the song connection as it is totally for the short bus, honey. And I am about ready for it with the lack of snow everyone else seems to have.

I don't cut pizza like a psycho, but I can't open resealable bags or boxes to save my life. My husband says it looks like a chimp on acid opens them. I don't care. Sometimes I try harder and sometimes I don't. I'm not perfect...but pretty dang close.

It’s worse than that. If the locals would honor ICE detainer requests the transfers would be performed at the courthouse or jail, in a secure location.

144 The vaccum story triggered a memory.

My husband had a co-worker with a fetish. Which we found out later after he fled for: Texas! hahahaha!

He hung out in the library and it turned him on to stick it in the books. An innocent woman would pull out a book, either a book of Elizabethan poems or 40 Shades of Grey, and THERE HE WAS! from the other side of the row of books!

When my husband told me this I cracked up laughing and said if it happened to me I'd whack that thing with the book as I yelled. He was a nerdy type, by the way. No one would look at him and scream pervert.

The same library, I think, I went to on my lunch break from the med center. I quit using the loo when a homeless wacko woman shot out of a stall and screamed at me to get out of her house! I did!

Near the newspapers there was the stench of homeless, reading the news and enjoying the AC. And this was 20yrs ago.

I just needed the Caps to get the Shoot Out point, to keep Detroyette from getting it.

The Atlantic is wayyyyy to tight right now. I'd like the Sabres to have a little breathing room.

177 So we finished watching the Resident Alien series last night.

It was satisfying. Rounded the whole thing out. All the threads were tightened up, all the cast nicely featured, and nothing else needing to be said or done.

Best closing episode since… Bob Newhart.

Eureka has a pretty good ending of the last episode, so I recall. Need to watch it again.

But at the moment, we're at a loss for what to watch next. Might just have to go to bed early.

The SINGLE WORST song to get massive airplay is "Head over Heels" by Alanis. The song itself *sucks*. But the worst part is the GOD AWFUL HARMONICA SOLO that takes place. And the harmonica is out of tune with the rest of the song, but even that presupposes that AN INTUNE HARMONICA CAN SAVE AN AWFUL SONG!

251 Tracking son and family's plane to FL. Almost landing. I will miss our little midgets and sweet baby girl this weekend, but hope they have a wonderful time with our other son and DIL and friends. Back in a few days. I saw the baby girl on Wed, so that will have to do for the week. Little doll, she is.

Good night, Morons and 'ettes! You keep me sort of sane!

Rock on!

Oh, she was a healer too, so on the nights that DIDN'T happen, it was always some lost soul, like our waitress, sitting down to share her life story with her for 3 hours. Sigh

I had the good fortune to see a few of my friendzone loves later and realize I'd dodged a few bullets just by being a dope. What's the line?

Stuff happens as planned. One of my male friends gave me feelings that he was interested. But never had the courage to do anything & I gave up. I honestly am thankful now as he got into some trouble with the law years later and seemed to be a cold SOB. When I rode his motorcycle with him in shorts and burned the heck out of my calf it was a sign. He did nothing. No empathy. I took that as a sign.

I married the crazy boyfriend instead, who broke up with me every season the first year we met at 22yrs. I think (other than my obvious charms and ambition), I impressed him by not whining, chasing, stalking or giving a hoot. I ain't going to beg anyone. We won!

My SIL was practically in tears the other day because she's afraid her adopted son ( who is nearly 40, Hispanic and American born) will be picked up by ICE and deported. Completely ridiculous, but her concern is genuine and my opinion doesn't count because "I'm in the Trump cult." And I'm childless, which I regret, and the only one in my family, now that my sister's husband has passed, who supports Trump. Going by demographics, I should be a screeching leftist cat lady.
