The Ever-Jelly

Is Peter Pan staying young by an absolute choice really so far fetched?
Mother Nature has shown it's possible!

Meet the Turritopsi nutricula, a jellyfish living with its own fountain of youth. This sea creature has the ability to regenerate its cells so as to become young again, literally. A kind of reboot of the life cycle, over and over again. You can read more about them here.

The part that's a little scary? They're mulitplying... and they're immortal.

Anyone who says magic doesn't exist and Nature doesn't strike back, think again.

Fact vs. Fiction, again.

Another movie that hinges on the nature of what we believe is HouseSitter. It stars Steve Martin and Goldie Hawn at their wacky best. I would love it just for this line alone: “Half of what we tell ourselves is fiction.” It’s…er, true. What are you willing to believe and how far are you able to deceive others and yourself? I’m not suggesting deception, but think about it the next time you make up a reason why something can or cannot be. Besides this profundity, it’s hilarious. Lemonie (the one who introduced me to Stranger Than Fiction) and I watched it twice in college. Friday night and again Saturday morning. But, then, I have a soft spot for Martin and Hawn.
