I remember seeing this kid on the news last week. I believe there was a pitcher in the majors who had six fingers, but I can't remember who it was.

The awesome thing is that the fingers are normal sized and fully functional, as opposed to oddly shaped/useless like most extra digits are. My wife and I thought it was awesome- definitely get that kid into musical instruments.

I do not mean to pry, but you don't by any chance happen to have six fingers on your right hand?

Do you always begin conversations this way?

My father was slaughtered by a six fingered man.




The fingers I get, but what even constitutes a "functioning" toe? Outside of Mr. Big, mine are all pretty worthless.

Dr. Treece... have you seen Heroes or X-Men. We're on the brink of obsolescence and you say it's not worrisome?

Never mind the robot apocolypse. Doom will come in the guise of a child. We will love him and nurture him. But in the end, he will end us. ... and the meek shall inherit the earth.

+1.

I'd also be up for more dexterity with the ones I have now.
