custom mods, X-Men style

Inspired by a post over at misia's:

If you could have any modifications to your basic body, what would they be?

I don't mean the usual "lose 10 pounds", "have whiter teeth", etc. I mean something beyond the realm of current medical science.

Me, I'd want voluntary fertility and brain backup capability. And retractable razor claws, like Molly in "Neuromancer", just 'cos they're kewl :P

Please reply, it helps me design aliens....

Brain backup sounds wonderful ... I REALLY could have used it at work today. :p

Conscious control over hair growth (and speed of growth, including the ability to stop it when desired) would be on my list ... not just on the head, but all over the body; trust me, on really cold days it'd be NICE to be furry under one's clothes ... after all, one can always stop the growth and shave it off later. (of course I've now given myself some serious giggles 'cause I just remembered Billy Connolly's routine about growing his hair long and how he had to be careful because if he got the pressure wrong, his pubic hair would shoot out of his trousers ... LOL!!!!!)

The fur WOULD be a nice addition in cold weather. I'd go for something short and velvety like Kisia.

Re: Billy Connoly and his exploding pubes - that creates a very disturbing mental image!

It's funnier when Billy says it. And does the sound effects. :p
