for coffee, for a quick calcium boost, for kids who suck their thumbs.

Foam Thumb
http://www.halfbake...ea/Flipping_20Thumb Could leak water for moistening stamps, so why not milk? Unless for your binky you'd rather use a pinky. [reensure, Jul 06 2002]

I believe that milk glands evolved from sweat glands, but even so, I think this could be difficult to achieve, and even then too gross to stick in your coffee. |
|
|
sputnik, you are liable to get lots of negative votes unless you try and explain how ideas could actually be created. |
|
|
Also, how can you possibly get a calcium boost from your own milk? (If anything, given that there are bound to be some losses in the stomach, you'll end up with a net calcium loss.) |
|
|
Maybe you could hook a milk jug or bag up to your thumb, just for fun? Oh, that's a terrible idea, but it makes a funny mental image. |
|
|
Anyway, sputnik5 hasn't specified a way in which this could be done. |
|
|
I have to give this a thumbs down. (No offen(c)se, 'wax.) |
|
|
if it could be done it could be for men or shy women (in public) that want to breastfeed. the people that did the mouse with an ear on its back have worked out a way to make a liver so a milk gland could be made if its not more complicated than a liver. Actually then you'd end up with a huge thumb with a nipple on the end. |
