Rather startling implications, genetically - did other hominids die out due to inbreeding? [rt.com]

davknight comments on Dec 23, 2019:

I remember once asking an anthro professor if our predecessors cross-bred, to produce the hominid types that would eventually replace them? He just flashed me one of those 'Eureka moment' smiles of his, and said "that is the $64,000 question!". So far, there is genetic evidence of Neanderthal-Modern Homo cross-breeding. But the whole subject needs to be studied in greater detail.

I had a brief close-encounter with a woman who was a fundamentalist Christian. When she started trying to convert me, I fled for my life!

Let's see if this works.

davknight comments on Dec 21, 2019:

According to eighteenth-century British trader, Alexander Henry, the area just south of Waugoshance Point was the site of L'Arbre Croche, the largest Indian town on the Great Lakes. Some people place it at Cross Village. But this is too far south of where Henry says it was ("20 miles southwest of Fort Michilimackinac"). If his reckoning is correct, then there is an undiscovered Indian town near the highway that runs along Lake Michigan, adjacent to present-day Wilderness State Park. As a boy, I once found some arrowheads in that area.

Researchers locate what they believe are two mass graves from Tulsa race massacre of 1921 ...

davknight comments on Dec 21, 2019:

An even bigger mass murder took place in Elaine, Arkansas, in the summer of 1919, when several thousand Federal troops, cops, vigilantes, and actual KKK attacked, and wiped out a community of Black sharecroppers, because White landowners were afraid they were becoming 'bolshevised' by the organizing efforts of a sharecropper's union. The death toll was 150 (low side) to 900. There are doubtlessly mass graves yet to be uncovered, in that area. (Read "Red Summer", by Cameron McWhirter). The Army brought along a dozen water-cooled machineguns, to make the slaughter less 'tiresome'.

I was reading some of the things that were passed in Congress and saw this.

I think they had one of those in my junior high school gym, on those days when they'd play Strawberry Alarm Clock,Question Mark and the Mysterions, and Tommy James and the Shondells records, and make the girls gym class and the boys gym class dance with each other. I didn't even know how, and always got picked last. As did a certain girl with crossed eyes. As a result, I always got paired off with her!

Ever notice how The Wizard of Oz is basically about religion?

davknight comments on Dec 17, 2019:

It seems to have been "borrowed" from "Gulliver's Travels", which was meant as a social satire. I still get a chuckle when the Wiz tells the scarecrow that people with "brains" have but one thing the scarecrow doesn't have--a diploma!

Do you remember what gift Santa brought you in 1968? 🎅🤔

davknight comments on Dec 17, 2019:

The only one I can remember from '68 was a .22 pellet rifle. with which, I promptly shot our landlady's cat square on the tail bone. It flattened the pellet, which ricocheted off the cat; but didn't hurt the cat a bit. Instead, it's hindquarters rotated 90 degrees, swung back down, and off it scampered. Cats have tough butts!

Buy disassembled bookcases from Walmart. Then, take them home, put them together, and sell them at a profit. There are lots of people looking to buy bookcases, who are too busy, or lazy, to put them together themselves; and are happy to buy them at twice what you paid for them. Advertise on Craigslist, or sell them at outdoor flea markets.

Love this wagon, who had one?

davknight comments on Nov 27, 2019:

My Dad always drove station wagons. In fact, when I first got my drivers license, he gave me his old '64 Dodge Dart station wagon (with a push-button transmission). He had just bought a new one, and decided to give me the old one. I quickly christened it the 'Water Buffalo', because you could drive through some rather deep puddles, without the wiring shorting out.

Are Non Believers More Prone To Using Profanity?

davknight comments on Nov 26, 2019:

The English armies that rampaged through France, during the Hundred Years War, would have thought themselves 'good Christians'. Yet, in addition to committing rape, pillage, mass murder, and arson,they "God damned" everything. They "God damned" French beer, French wine, French women, etc. So much so, that French soldiers began referring to them as "Goddamns" (which is supposedly the origin of the expression).

davknight comments on Nov 25, 2019:

Nope. But I like to look at others' Christmas light displays. And nativity scenes don't offend my sensibilities in the slightest. In the early 1900s, a group of Wobblies got arrested up in Washington state. And the cops were surprised they had set up a Christmas tree. "I thought you guys were atheists!" one of the cops said. The Wobs replied that they were celebrating the birthday of "the carpenter of Nazareth, and the fisherman of Galilee"
