"Hey kids, don't put your lips on that!"
what the heck is that

This bears repeating...I mean, really, what the heck is that? It either proves the existence of a deity, because it's just too freaky to have originated out of the primordial ooze without a bit of divine guidance, or else it disproves the existence of a deity, because if there were a deity how could it let such a weird thing grow on trees? Did I mention I'm all woozy with dental woe?

Does anyone know how to spell deity? Diety? Demi god, god, Mr. Manfrensengen...I are an Englsih major...heh.

I *think* it's an osage orange, also called a hedge apple. If you cut it open, it is extremely sticky, and sweet smelling. It is poisonous, iirc.

Check out hedgeapple.com
and osageorange.com -(warning, not for the squemish)

You're right about that second site, someone used one to kill Bambi!

Oh no, was it the osage orange or the deer?
