Metro Lulz



When this morning's Metro ran a front page headline about the first full face transplant in the US right next to a photo of MBTA General Manager Richard Davey (who is well known by name but not by sight) my first thought was "They did a fantastic job! He looks great!"

Yes, I e-mailed the Metro about it. :-)

Actually that's not the same man. The one you linked was the first partial transplant. This man is getting the first full transplant:

Ah, oops! Reading comprehension fail. I didn’t realize Brigham and Women’s had done more than one face transplant.
