Another Question to Ponder

We have decided to put our phone, internet and cable all under one company. Because of that, internet has been down for a couple of days. But we have made the transition and everything should be working fine from here on out.

Just before I logged on, I had an interesting thing happen to me. My ear itched on the outside so I did what any human would do, I scratched it. What I didn't expect to happen, was to somehow cut the top of my ear and not realize it till the entire outside of my ear is covered in blood. I not exagerating, I didn't know the human ear could bleed that much. I mean its only cartlidge for gosh sakes. What this does though, is bring up an interesting question. Why do things like that happen sometimes? Mike and I talk about this alot. I mean I've relieved my ear from an itch thousands of times in my life, and then out of nowhere, I cut it. It's almost as if my own body attacks itself. Mike has brought up this very subject on his own blog. You chew food a million times in your life, so why do you bite your tounge? Or even worse, how in the heck do you bite the inside of your cheek? I challenge you right now, try to bite the inside of your cheek. It's not easy, you really have to do some mouth movement to get the inside of your cheek between your teeth. Yet somehow while chewing gum or eating, we bite a chunk of cheek out. I just don't get. Mike thinks its's our bodies self canablizing. And to tell you the truth, I am beginning to believe him more and more everyday.
