Shouldn't it be called a "full body transplant"?

Will rich old folk pay some poor slob to live a life of luxury for 5-10 years on condition of lopping of his noggin at the end of the term?  :eek:

There are some suspicions that this whole thing is a viral marketing ploy for some online company. I can't recall which.

Brain transplants are needed more like.

Or a proper belt round the head until they stop acting like idiots is the cure.

That creature made of two highly incompatible players would just sit in the tower, arguing with itself all day:


Look! A horde over our field! Quick, up a 109 and have fun... let's see how many we can take with us before going down
- No! We should take of 2 sectors away in a 262 and come in on them at 20k!(If they are still there, that is...)


I'm bored... Let's rattle their cage on 200 and fly low and slow over their base
- No, let's up a B-29 and spend 60 minutes in an exciting climbout


We are hit.... oh, it's only the rudder... we don't need no stinkin rudder! Ain't even got a single kill yet...
- We've been HIT? Were are DAMAGED? OMG... we must dive home at once!


Hello guys, where's the fight?
- Hold your horses! First, we have to examine the map... very carefully! Maybe we can spot another strat raider within the hour!

I like this idea.  :aok and I know where we can get a source of bodies.  :old: prison!  :old: yep with the new use of bodies we can justify loping a prisoners head because his body will go to a good place like, Michael Jordan, or Brett Favre, or me.  :rock  heck minus a stroke or brain cancer i could see myself living for a long time.  :banana:
