Growing an Exoskeleton

In light of some recent arm pain, I've taken to wearing a wrist brace 24 hours a day.  This change of lifestyle has brought to light an old plan which I've left idle for far too long.  I need to grow an Exoskeleton.
 
I'm planning to wear any and all types of braces while my new carapace grows.  Sure, airport security will be even more of challenge than normal.  Sure, I may not be quite as graceful and nimble.  I may even have to change species.  Again.
 
Hearing of my plans, I was served a notice this morning by a representative of the Anti-Turtle/Tortoise Defamation League (ATTDL).  In order to prevent me from being known as a form of Turtle, they wanted to ensure that I did not infringe upon their patents and copyrights.  He then flipped me over on my back and left. 
 
A couple of hours later, I was back on my feet and making a few strategic modifications to my external armour.  During that time, various other Plated Persons had started filing motions of their own, attempting to protect their interests.  I finally received a reluctant call from Henry Winkler, spokesperson for American Armadillos Against Adversity And Avarice (AAAAAA).  He informed me that the Armadillos would not publically acknowledge my existence, but they wouldn't try to end it, either.
 
While I would not be a member of the gang, or allowed to publically disclose my affilliation, I would be allowed to be run over by trucks.
 
It's great to be included.

    Is an Exoskeleton a fancy word for exotic skeleton?

    Tried growing hair.  It revolted.  There was a war, I lost "Mammal" status, I wandered speciesless, I was granted provisional Mammal status temporarily, and I ate becan. 

    This armadillo thing might work out after all.  What could possibly go wrong?

     My teeth stopped growing awhile back,but at one time I had chompers coming from everywhere.

     Now I have taken mostly to horizontal body growth,I'm trying to displace all of the water in the pool when I jump in.

    I had thought the Moobs would guarantee my mammal status, but I was wrong.  They were considered to be an aberration.

    In retrospect, that may have been correct.

    Therapists love it when I do that at Halloween.  They say it guarantees them a very rich future.

    Look for a specific series of images type out which ones and up they come...

    A lot of posts didn't turn out as in-10-did.

    That's why we have Spell Check and not InTent check.  It's sometimes best not to question these things.
