How about wider sensory apparatus in general: echolocation, magnetic sense, IR sensors like pit vipers, radiation detectors....

The ability to make offspring by budding. That would be so cool.

As to pig orgasms, is that a true orgasm or is that simply how long that pigs have been known to copulate?

Screw photosynthesis. I like the snow too much.

Give me some kind of countercurrent circulation that makes me more cold resistant.

What's this about pig orgasms?

Hmm.

1. Unbreakable bones and an ulcer-proof stomach (I have good reason to desire these, as well as a 'roid immune anus).

2. Heat-sensing organs as found in pit vipers. (Would save a lot of hassle and expense with potential girlfriends .

3. Eyes designed as found in octopi (I then might be able to toss these coke-bottle glasses).

4. Teeth that replace themselves as found in crocodiles and sharks. Spit one out and it's replaced with a brand, new one!

5. A spine designed for walking upright.

6. Oh hell. There is no sixth. We are walking wrecks and we could be so much better designed. I'll cut it off here.

Hey, ya can't have everything!

How about a dual purpose spine for long Hog rides! (no pig orgasm jokes, please).
