Q. So, what do you call a Jamaican Neanderthal?

A. Cavemon.

Anthropologists tell us Neanderthal men did not walk fully erect. Which makes sense, given what Neanderthal women looked like.

FWIW "Nowhere is Safe" has also been used in reference to nuclear war.

Joe sings great harmony in this video by the way!

So I feared for Sambo when he encountered the tigers. I was elated when he eluded them by first racing around the tree and then climbing it. I was mystified how tigers running round and round a tree could turn to butter (but set that aside so I could continue the story and reduce my fearful suspense). I was relieved to see that Sambo was safe. I identified with Sambo (although I am neither black or brown).

Hoorah for the fantastic tales from many lands that filled my childhood and those of my brothers and sisters with wonder!

I am still a child when I read fairy tales and fables.

"The experiment had revealed an “extremely undesirable, and previously unidentified, side effect of warnings: the more often older adults were told that a claim was false, the more likely they were to remember it erroneously as true after a three day delay,” they wrote. (While the researchers fixated on older adults, the data itself shows that this is a cross-generational issue.)

"People walked into that study pretty sure that shark fins didn’t treat arthritis. They were told repeatedly that shark fins do not treat arthritis. And they walked out of the study believing that shark fins treat arthritis.",,,

"We need to go on an informational diet. We need to become more discerning with what we want to know and what we need to know."

Our cost: every 2 weeks we drop a few bombs in a few locations,

Their cost: no oil/gas and eventually no nothing as no one gets paid.

Seems like a low-cost winning strategy to me.

I'm pretty sure one grenade in the right place would shut the entire island down.

That was good for a half-semester but then a formidable classroom opponent arose: a "new" boy who had been educated in another state using the very same textbook! I realized I'd have to commit at least a handful of the most useful trig identities to memory to solve problems quickly and remain at the head of the class. A weekend of furious comparison and selection ensued, but that was enough to carry me across the finish line in trig class.

I knew the original!8-)) Hope you aren't him!

Critics never miss a chance to sit around and bitch about orange man.

Such innocents could never compete in premed, which is replete with sociopaths/psychopaths willing to sabotage each others for a seat in med school. [We should consider a secret government program to siphon off toxic pre-med students to business/military/intelligence programs for which they are much more suitable]. Our medical biosphere is much less than healthy today thanks to these demon seed "flowering" into practice.

That, along with removing caps on medical school residencies:
