It's one of a bunch of fun inherited things (as opposed to your mother's thighs) that are fun to compare amongst friends :) Other things are being able to roll your tongue and whether you can taste...(some chemical I forget now) which tends to put you off things like broccoli, cabbage and coffee.Jacquihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01192730590127098720noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7556794318856646559.post-58569048679431828592008-12-14T10:47:00.000-06:002008-12-14T10:47:00.000-06:00Nah, my thumbs aren't bendy, but I can draw better...Nah, my thumbs aren't bendy, but I can draw better than my in-law's who have bendy thumbs.
