Lolligolli at Kos brings us this delightfully depressing story about shrinking snakes — not only yours, but the one belonging to your pet alligator.
Renowned scientist Louis Guillette announced research today indicating that pesticide pollution is causing a reduction in penis size and increasing the numbers of male genital abnormalities due to chemical similarity to estrogen.
Surely some drug company will come out soon with a new pill to help us fix the problem. Just wondering though, could this lead us to the root of Curious George’s problem with little things like manliness? Is there a reason that Daddy Bush calls him “little George”? Was Barbara a lawn freak? Anybody know?

Thinks this applies to those who developed (or didn't) after the introduction of pesticides. Those who have it can keep it. Young women flocking to older men?

Not sure this is his problem - he doesn't (as far as I know) have a predilection for guns, motorbikes or souped-up cars. Also, there has to be some explanation of why Laura has stuck by this empty shell of a man all these years.
