And no back hair. I knew back hair was un-natural.

My husband has hair in places monkeys don't. :(

(he wrote all about it in his livejournal so I'm not giving away state secrets)

I'm wondering why an animal (especially an underwater animal) would need furry forearms though.

I understand whiskers that cats and horses have, but furry forearms like Robin Williams are a bit excessive.

I guess the female crustaceans like 'em that way. . .

I've read that we actually have more hair per square inch than gorillas. But I've never tried to confirm that one article.
