Good point. Anyway, who would argue with or trash talk him?

Good one about the pigs. I think it's nice to see the Brits. still need dental care. Look at the newswoman's teeth. Bottom set is pretty scary. As for the gorilla, I have to say his posture is rather unusual. He may indeed have some sort of pelvic anomaly.

Wow. No Michelle Obama jokes. Impressive.

I never could figure out the fixation on finding some missing link that sorta walks upright, and sorta leans over. If God did slowly create the universe (I’m leaning towards the notion that an old-looking universe was created in situ), than at some point somebody just decided it was easier to walk upright.

He does seems to lock them forward, like a very pregnant woman. Spine seemed to have a bulge down low- curvature, perhaps?

[muawiyah]

We don't know that. It could be that the gorillas have agreed to "fake it" by knuckle walking when humans are around.

That way we'll never bother to see if they're smart enough to pay taxes on income!

This bunch are giving away the show. I see a bad end for them once the others find out!

What Congressional district does he represent?

[brytlea]

LOL Yes, and cats are also actually aliens studying us. But don’t tell anyone, they have a great gig! ;)

[brytlea]

Yes, but it takes some anatomical changes.

[wendy1946]

Isn’t upright posture sometimes cited as evidence of hominid evolution?? ......

[dangus]

Well, as you see... not really.

[brytlea]

I guess you’re the expert.

[Mr. Mojo]

not enough speed for a linebacker however.

Gorillas are much faster than any linebacker -- 25 mph top speed, when needed. Quicker too. And a silverback could probably throw a 350 lb offensive lineman about 15 feet in the air.
