I didn't know Iommi was missing a finger.

Trevor Rabin from Yes (or sometimes from Yes) is reportedly without a spleen. I am not making this up.

January 8, 2002 - MX-80 completed the first stage of its arthoscopic joint replacement strategy. Guitarist Jim Hrabetin underwent knee surgery in December and vocalist Rich Stim replaced a shoulder capsule in October 2001

"We've been together for 25 years," said Stim, "and we just thought -- let's replace some parts." In 2000, the band bought a 5-year limited orthopedic policy for staggered single joint replacement.

In 2002 Bruce Anderson and Dale Sophiea are eligible for new joints.

"I haven't decided what to replace," said Anderson, "nothing's really bothering me."

"If I can't have a new back," says Sophiea, "Ill go for a right knee or right shoulder."

In related health news, MX-80 announced that it had switched from bar soap to pump soap.

What's John S. Hall's problem?

― Mr. Snrub (Mr. Snrub), Wednesday, 19 May 2004 23:42 (twenty-two years ago)

Oh wait. I get it. "Detachable Penis," right?

Trevor Rabin from Yes (or sometimes from Yes) is reportedly without a spleen. I am not making this up.

That's right, a swimming-pool mishap. An obese woman rode the circular slide to the water and landed on him. (And, likewise, I am not making THIS up!)

Who's that rapper with no nose?

Tony Bennett is without a heart.

**An obese woman rode the circular slide to the water and landed on him.**

I hate it when that happens.

Billy Idol's got eyes, but he don't got no face.

― Ian Christe (Ian Christe), Thursday, 20 May 2004 14:21 (twenty-two years ago)

Jamey Jasta -- no thumb. (Firecrackers are BAD.) Wes from American Nightmare is also missing some fingers (or a hand, I forget).

― Je4nne ƒury (Jeanne Fury), Thursday, 20 May 2004 14:28 (twenty-two years ago)

"Billy Idol's got eyes, but he don't got no face."

Hah! Eater had no brains.

Worse still, Shriekback not only had no blood, no guts and no brains at all; but (in what I can only assume must have been a ghastly surgical mix-up) their spine replaced with a bassline of all things!

― Stewart Osborne (Stewart Osborne), Thursday, 20 May 2004 14:46 (twenty-two years ago)

Opposite topic, but doesn't Michael Gira have eleven toes?

― sexyDancer, Thursday, 20 May 2004 14:50 (twenty-two years ago)

That reminds me of my favorite old baseball joke.

Q: "Which baseball players have physical deformities?"
A: "No Neck Williams, Three Finger Brown, and Sixto Lezcano."

Who's the guy from Sparklehorse who took heaps of Quaaludes and alcohol then collapsed in his hotel room with his leg under him and he had to have it amputated 'cause the blood circulation was cut off and instead of getting a normal prosthetic leg he got a peg leg like an olde fashionede piratee?

Is David Crosby missing any livers or kidneys or anything? (i thought I heard that once)...
