And so, in my first blog since the announcement, I’m goingwayback to our past.
300,000 years or so.
Yes, the return of The Pirate Ship might be the biggest story in the history of mankind.
But close behind are some of these updates about the origin of our species.
Interestingly, researchers say the species ‘did not possess a true chin’.
Nevertheless, this is a fascinating discovery.
Which only serves to draw a bright yellow highlighter across what a miracle our existence is.
Homo sapiens did you this species what the 1985 Bears did to the Ray Berry Patriots.
Otherwise we’re not having this cyber conversation.
And all of this comes on the heels of yet another anthropological breakthrough.
Those 70 year old women who still watch CNN must’ve been ovulating for the first time since 9/11.
More importantly, this is perhaps the most astonishing find of all these.
Species only slightly similar to us not only burying their dead, but marking the graves with symbols?
The implications of this are profound.
These suggest that there’s a universality to such images.
Such Plato, Archimedes, Euclid, Pythagoras, Newton and Phil Jackson.
(And possibly the Illuminati.)
I mean, doesn’t the mere suggestionHomo nalediconducted burial rituals connect us to them over the eons?
Make modern humans seem more a part of the vast cosmic unconsciousness of the universe?
“How’s your family doing?”
“Oh, fine.
“Your son must’ve gone through the rite of passage by now.”
During the last solstice.
He’s with the valley dwellers now and looking for a fertile mate.
“You know how the young are.
He broke his leg on a log so we had to eat him.”
“I hear you.
Same thing happened with my brother’s offspring during the hunt.”
“Oogluk looks good though, huh?
The tribal elders did a nice job preparing his decaying corpse.”
Still, this all serves to remind us of our place on this spinning blue marble.
And how much more we still have to learn about ourselves.
As well as our future, now that The Pirate Ship is back.
