Cauliflower ear . . . so hott right now

Sometimes I read things that I really don't expect.

Apparently, according to this article, mixed martial arts (M.M.A.) has a trademark deformity called "cauliflower ear." It is caused by repeated blows to the ears, and develops when the injured ear is left untreated.

You can get an idea of what it looks like here, in a fight between James Thompson and Kimbo Slice.

Apparently, chicks dig this kind of stuff. There's nothing like a bloody, pus-filled ear to make 'em swoon.

Anyway, moving on. Dre and I are tying the knot a week from this Saturday. We saw a lot of people last weekend in the Springs, which was really, really nice. I did alright on the GRE; I know I could have done better if I just could have had a little time, but I suppose all that matters is the fact that my score is good enough for the grad program I want to get in to.
