Current bod mods

Skipping the studying again for another post on body modification. Too many Rogers in Psychology to study out of the name alone. Hope we were assigned Carl Rogers. Finally studying for the test tomorrow, but all the talk on body modification surgery gave me an idea. If there is time later tonight, I will put up a few photoshop morphs. Will commence reading Asterix from tomorrow in search of the promised Magic Potion.

And one thing I forgot to mention about body modification is that I saw a documentary on it on Discovery a few days back, and tatooing is passe now, replaced by a more painful method called branding. So painful, in fact, that people can die of shock. People also apparently put in implants under their skin, the most popular being horns on the forehead. There are also multipurpose sockets on the skull which will let you attach a number of things from metallic spikes to those buffalo type horns.

This is a brand. Apparently there is nothing like the smell of your own skin burning under 1200 degrees of heat. Some branding is done using electricity though.
