The eyes of an Eagle, the teeth of a Shark... If you could choose your body parts where would they come from?

After reading about the Stem Cell research, I started thinking about the possibilities of programming cells to grow in a certain way.

Since I read that in my dentist's office, my first tought was why can't I have teeths like a Shark? Loose one and another comes right back up. That's got to be the top of the evolutionary line when you talk about teeth.

And how about my eyes? I quickly thought of an Eagle because of commom knowledge, but maybe there is another animal with better eyes than an Eagle. I know Tiger Woods is one step ahead of us in that direction.

And my list went on. The nose of a dog, the ears of a bat, the tong of a frog :)... And I got curious about what parts of the body would people choose to change if they could.

I'm not asking about the morality of this possibility, so those that consider the whole idea wrong please keep your noise away from the thread.

I would want eyes like a human, but it would have to be a human with good eyesight. Same goes for arms, legs, etc. :)

Now, if you had eyes like an eagle and the teeth of a shark, you'd be a freaky looking person.

Salma Hayek's figure
Katherine Zeta-Jones' hair and eyes
Sarah Maclachlan's voice

And last but not least:

Jane Seymour's ability to age gracefully and quick postpartum recovery!;)

Of course aesthetics(sp?) would have to be the same as what we are used to. I'm not talking about a freak like that cat guy.

Now that's some smart choice!

I'l like the ability to grow back appendages like a lizard. It would be a great party trick to lop off your hand and have it grow back.

I wouldn't mind having those blade things that could pop out of my hand like the Wolverine dude in x-men. Either that or a bottle openner would work :)

Stem cell research is bad! You damn liberal bastages! How you expect us to get you to fork over all your dough to the medical industry if you cure all these diseases!?! You keep this sheet up I'm sending another h0 after your D-congressman next!

I would stay the f$%k away from women who have the little tiny round eyes of the eagle and the sharp teeth of a shark.
I'm sure women think likewise of men.

Yeah, that only works with tails, though.

Is anyone else thinking of that 80s cartoon right now? I think it was Bravestarr?
