'Get Guinness on the Phone' & 'How to Bypass News Registrations'

This is messed up. A Romanian woman gave birth today. The baby weighs just over 3 pounds but is doing well. The kicker? The mother is 66 years old (or 67 depending on which article you read). The world's oldest woman to give birth. Is that really something you want on your tombstone?

This was no accident. Oh no. She was artificially inseminated. Hmmm, by the time her daughter graduates from high school, she'll be a spry 84!

Another story with photos, but a word of warning -- the photos of the mother and tiny baby disturbed me. I'm not sure which one had more wrinkles.

And if these news sites keep asking you to sign up for a (free) subscription or registration, I recommend you either pick a different news source or use the BugMeNot extension for Firefox or you can go to the BugMeNot site and perhaps get registered credentials to use. This will save you the time and hassle of filling in their forms with bogus information just to read a news story. Posted by Chris on 1/17/2005 09:49:00 PM :: Permalink
