Katy: Are you still feeling bad?
Adam: No! I am not! See what I did there? I'm using positive thoughts to trick my body into not getting sick.
Katy: Why are you whispering?
Adam: 'Cause my ears are listening!
There are some who, though towering talents, and geniuses of the first order, can be utterly useless at the most mundane and simple of tasks. Take the painter van Gogh: you would think that someone who had such mastery over his paint brushes (not to mention his palette knives) could handle a shaving brush (not to mention a razor).But no: one morning, trying yet again to shave, he missed his beard completely stuck his well-lathered shaving brush right up his nose and promptly performed an impromptu lobulectomy on his left ear!
Even if you didn’t have the outer ear, it would seem you could still hear. It would just be difficult to tell the origin of the sounds, voices, etc…As long as you have an ear canal, eardrum, etc you can hear fine. May not be able to wear glasses, but your hearing would be ok.

That cure suggestion has a couple of bad (and permanent) side effects….

Stuff your ears with wads of cotton, Adam. That should do the trick…
