“Hey, have you ever tried dating a stone?”

I call and ask all the time but they never accept my offer of a night out.

Gee, only 4000 years old. Must have broken off a meteor passing by 4000 years ago. With every inorganic material on earth being over 4.2 billion years old, perhaps he should have said ‘over 4000 years above ground’ to cover the bases.

That right there is funny, I don't care who you are.

I agree. Let's fix it.

". . .the circular layout of the stones could be over 4,000 years old. . ."

They haven’t looked this good for at least 4000 years

Do they look better after a few beers. . . or considering the area, . . pints of ale?

That photo of ancient rocks is actually a still from the documentary film, "The March of the Penguins".
