What's a Fetus?
We thought we knew.
Seems that three thin-skinned fatties quit the gym in enlightened Lawrence, KS (we've been there, and there ain't much to recommend it) on accounta a "fetus Christmas tree."
"Wow! It's so cool that Damien Hirst is now doing X-mas trees," we thought.
Yokels are predictably pissed. They're also, if we read the article correctly, misinformed:
The tree had about a dozen blue and pink stockings, each stuffed with a plastic figure and attached card that labeled the dolls as being "between 11 and 12 weeks old."
Elsewhere in the article the figures are described as "babies."
We thusly believe that the little buggers are meant to represent human beings -- 11 and 12 weeks after birth -- in which case they are not fetuses. Merely creepy.
