And God so gently placed that little thing right there for a certain reason, and I'm perfectly fine with it.

Anyone who believes this is anything more than a wild, speculative guess, is a gullible doofus. And likely related to Gomer from Mount Pilot, N.C.

The phenomenon is called primary endosymbiosis, and it occurs when one microbial organism engulfs another, and starts using it like an internal organ. In exchange, the host cell provides nutrients, energy, protection and other benefits to the symbiote, until eventually it can no longer survive on its own and essentially ends up becoming an organ for the host – or what’s known as an organelle in microbial cells.
In other words, marriage.

The second time happened about 1.6 billion years ago, when some of these more advanced cells absorbed cyanobacteria that could harvest energy from sunlight. These became organelles called chloroplasts, which gave sunlight-harvesting abilities, as well as a fetching green color, to a group of lifeforms you might have heard of – plants. And now, scientists have discovered that it’s happening again. A species of algae called Braarudosphaera bigelowii was found to have engulfed a cyanobacterium that lets them do something that algae, and plants in general, can’t normally do – "fixing" nitrogen straight from the air, and combining it with other elements to create more useful compounds.

This may ultimately change the ideal of a hot woman.
For instance, which will be the sexiest place that the third eye is located? Or the third ear, for that matter…

I’ll be here all week, folks. Because I got nothing better to do.

Interesting. Have to admit that I though this was going to be about Bernie and Marjorie Taylor having an affair.
