Gee, Homo erectus. I thought that was Barney Frank on the prowl.

Kinky Friedman ~ Homo Erectus

I left Barber College
Searchin’ for knowledge,
Went to the university.
I must confess, Sir
This lady professor
She turned me on to anthropology.

Now I’m a Homo Erectus
Got to connect this
Bone that I discovered yesterday.
Tyrannosaurus
Lived in the forest,
Died because its heart got in the way.

Dear Doctor Howard
Come down from your tower
And join me for lunch at the “Y”.
Although you’re thirty
I still think you’re pretty
Let’s give it that good ole college try.

‘Cause I’m a Homo Erectus
Got to connect this
Bone that I discovered yesterday.
Tyrannosaurus
Lived in the forest,
Died because its heart got in the way.
OK!

Hey Jomo Kenyatta
No, no, you’re not a
Australopithecine boogieman.
It’s took us a jillion
But we’re all still here, been
Boogeyin’ since boogeyin’ began.

And I’m a Homo Erectus
Got to connect this
Bone that I discovered yesterday.
Tyrannosaurus
Lived in the forest,
Died because its heart got in the way.

You know I’m a Homo Erectus
Got to connect this
Bone that I discovered yesterday.
Tyrannosaurus lived in the forest,
Died because its heart got in the way.

On a separate but related note, I saw a bumper sticker this morning on a woman’s car (next to an 0bama/Biden sticker) that said “If you can read this, thank an evolutionarily successful hominid.” She had another sticker celebrating Darwin’s 200th birthday.

For the record, she was a crappy driver.

This whole presentation is very interesting and informative. It used to be taught in some geo/bio courses. I sat in on several.

It would need some tweaking or outright dismissal to fit into some geometric configurations.

Down here it only takes a fired up Baptist preacher and a willing audience...

The missionaries were just about done with the incorrigible islanders and were rowing back out to their sailship, having "accindentally" left the Good Book behind, hoping the natives would find it and soak up some Godliness.

Suddenly, they noted some islanders were running out to them, over the water. They arrived at the rowboat breathlessly, waving the bible in their hand, wishing to return the book as the missionaries must have forgotten to pack it.

The missionaries simply smiled, thinking the natives really did not need it afterall.

Blam has recommended the very interesting book The Voyages of The Pyramid Builders.The book covers much of the subject mentioned above and especially large rafts with lee way boards acting as keels and allowing steerage of a sailed ra

The pyramid builders by Robert M Scochft, who regretably is a moonbat and colors his work with liberal bias, is quite interesting
