Last week, my friend Luis came through town, with…a two faced calf named “Unique”:
We went for drinks at the Pink Adobe, $3 cover charge, the band playing loud Led Zeppin covers, and then some of my collegues from the Santa Fe Institute wanted to see what Luis had in the back of his big SUV in a trash can. In the dark parking lot behind the bar, Luis and crew unfolded from its plastic rapper the two faced calf. 17 days it lived, too short, I say, too short. We gathered around, freezing in the cold Santa Fe night, to stare at the two faced calf which itself was frozen and packed in ice. And the entire time, as we gawked and stared, the security guard stationed in the parking lot, he didn’t move a bit.
Somedays, life feels like it should be part of a novel. Other days, it seems even more interesting.
O brave new quantum world!
Poor calf…
There was apparently a two-faced kitten born recently.
Um… while searching for that story, I came across this page of feline abnormalities.

Here’s the story I saw recently.
Apparently not the first time that’s happened.
Sensing a trend, eh? I think either I’ve gone totaly nuts or the whole world has, but what is the difference between these two alternatives anyway?
And also in all strangeness my comment section just made me enter the code 37JCOW into this comment. COW? COW? Holy cow.
Two faced calf, almost die on mountain…
