What it's been like

All through these years, I've heard, "We're close to getting out of it," about a dozen times. I've even picked up every clue from all of mass media, "I heard it thru the grapevine, not much longer will you be mine..." I am also guilty of thinking---It's just going to happen, without me doing the hard work, like it's just going to come from the sky, like a disability check. Through all this, this is the only time sadly that you can't trust your gut, or your intuition, because everyone has been wrong.

Don't it make my brown eyes, blue

What is the genetic mutation "Originally, we all had brown eyes," said Professor Hans Eiberg from the Department of Cellular and Molecular Medicine. "But a genetic mutation affecting the OCA2 gene in our chromosomes resulted in the creation of a "switch," which literally "turned off" the ability to produce brown eyes." The OCA2 gene codes for the so-called P protein, which is involved in the production of melanin, the pigment that gives colour to our hair, eyes and skin. The "switch," which is located in the gene adjacent to OCA2 does not, however, turn off the gene entirely, but rather limits its action to reducing the production of melanin in the iris -- effectively "diluting" brown eyes to blue. The switch's effect on OCA2 is very specific therefore. If the OCA2 gene had been completely destroyed or turned off, human beings would be without melanin in their hair, eyes or skin colour -- a condition known as  albinism...
