An umbilical cord is really a beautiful thing when its washed. See picture for example. I would love to have a tie with a picture of an umbilical cord on it. Or maybe fashion accesories made from realistically modeled umbilical cord material. I think its the colors that's so beautiful. An umbilical necklace would be good, a bracelet. Maybe little earings. What about umbilical cord woven into dreadlocks? Maybe on the darker side a realistic looking umbilical cord tied in a noose and worn upsidedown as a tie. Don't wear it to the big meeting for the new account.-- JesusHChrist, Jul 01 2005 Umbilical Tie http://gatesof.tvheaven.com/photo4.htmllet me know if you can't see these pictures, I have a Macintosh that wont save graphic files as jpgs. [JesusHChrist, Jul 01 2005] There's a baby goat wandering around outside, with his dried umbilical cord still attached. Dry and brown looks good on a goat. Your tie looks like an eviscerated mutant.-- baconbrain, Jul 01 2005 umbilical cords and necks are not a good mixture, ask a midwife.-- po, Jul 01 2005 I think umbilical cords and fashion are not the best bed fellows either, and I witnessed a birth last week.-- benindubai, Jul 01 2005 random, halfbakery
