WHY NEANDERTHALS DID NOT DEVELOPE FACEBOOK

Can good eyesight be a bad thing? Just read that the neanderthals had a bigger eye socket and therefore had bigger eyes and better vision. That sounds good but the theory is that it took more of their brain to process the enhanced visual input. That left less of the brain to develop higher reasoning and social interaction or something like that. So to those who saw less well went the world and the internet and the social media. Also just learned that roosters seem to have an internal clock and even if kept in constant light will crow at daybreak. I feel better knowing this and I’m not sure they will ever develop the ability to think critically.

I just read that Karl Rove and Sarah Palin are not getting along too well. I missed the CPAC and again Saturday Night Live. But did learn that learning Hebrew has become popular in Gaza. Iran has just launched a new destroyer that was built in that country. Also read that a group of men in Iran captured a pick pocket and actually took a vote on his punishment. In his defense one of the citizens quoted Tolstoy. That apparently won the day as he was let go by a vote of 10 to 5. Am now trying to think of a quote from Tolstoy.

What about a movie about old retired teachers leaving an old retired teacher’s home in Florida to help a struggling school. The scores are low on standardized tests and the students are zombies. Picture the teachers with cowboy hats and the long coats and boots, squinting into the sun as they start to do battle with low scores and the flesh eating living dead. Could it end with a battle against the zombie students and their allies the vampires and werewolves  or on a sweeter note as the zombies win the National Academic Decathlon.
