Hook

The other day at work, we got into a discussion about what you wouldn't do for $1,000 but you would for $100,000 (we actually do work sometimes, we're just slow right now) and one of the things that was brought up was cutting off limbs, and so naturally the story of Heather Mills being chased in a grocery store, slipping on a puddle spilled milk, and losing her fake leg came up.

This got me thinking. What about Captain Hook? He's missing a hand! And instead of teaching young-Disney-watching kids that we need to be nice to all people, even if they're missing body parts, we're teaching them that they're evil.

Poor Captain Hook! I guess this is kind of like the ultimate question from Wicked. Is evil something you're born with or is it thrust upon you? If Captain Hook had both of his hands, would he still be evil?

While Google image searching for "Captain Hook", I found this adorable picture.

Does anyone else find it ironic that the baby has both hands, but the costume bunts their legs together?
