CNN.com (http://www.cnn.com/2005/HEALTH/parenting/10/12/sixteen.kids.ap/index.html)
Most women find one birth excruciating. Why would anyone choose to go through it 15 more times?
I saw this segment earlier today and these people are even more strange to hear talk....

Yeah I saw this a couple of day ago... You should read the article, its scary. It says they are ready to have more if thats God's plan for them or something like that.

This is even worse:

Their children include two sets of twins, and each child has a name beginning with the letter "J": Joshua, 17; John David, 15; Janna, 15; Jill, 14; Jessa, 12; Jinger, 11; Joseph, 10; Josiah, 9; Joy-Anna, 8; Jeremiah, 6; Jedidiah, 6; Jason, 5; James, 4; Justin, 2; Jackson Levi, 1; and now Johannah.

Ugh. Can you imagine... this broad has constantly been pregnant for the past 18 years of her life. Morning sickness, hormones out of whack, bad appetite... I can't believe her husband can still get excited enough to knock her up so often.

"Honey, I've had 7 kids. My birth canal is like a waterslide"

Letterman was making fun of this last night as part of his "Top Ten" thing. Seems like every several years some couple tops the previous couple. First it was like 8 is a lot, then 10, then 12, then..

That's funny, cos when I read it, god came to mind. I was thinking of the biblical plagues though - having this lot round for dinner would be like the plague of locusts...

from what I saw, they are very well behaved. I can imagine they follow directions very well. They are creepy little soldiers in Jim Bob's army of children.

Oh I know, I just was thinking how creepy it would be to be faced with a large group of identically dressed, similar looking and named children.

When I read this article I thought of the comedian Andrew Dice Clay. He was doing his own version of nursery rhymes. "There was an old lady who lived in a shoe, she had so many kids, her uterus fell out. OH!"
