'About 2 million years ago, the human brain rapidly increased its mass until it was double the size of other primate brains.

"This happened because we started to eat better food, like eating more meat," said researcher Philipp Khaitovich of the Partner Institute for Computational Biology in Shanghai.'

So then, Stuart's brain........

Duhhh, wha...?

Cook yourself a nice steak tonight Stuart. You will feel a LOT smarter!

But if we eat too much meat then we become, ahem, I believe the terminus technicus is meatheads, as first recognized by Archie Bunker in his PBS series The Summation of Genealogy. The cure for this is a hearty serving of groat clusters.

Don't eat with your hands, son, use your entrenching tool!

And there's hamburger all over the highway in Mystic, Connecticut.

Those are the headlines, now the rumors behind the news.

Sorry, only one tub per family!

I could care less. All I want is a chunk of that pig!

Ed Ames to please and so does Louise.

So don't hide arms, get side arms.

They never come up into the hills.

So LOL, by inference, one must conclude that vegans are approaching that room temp IQ plateau and will shortly be swinging from the very fruit trees from which they derive sustenance!

... swinging from the very fruit trees...

That's pretty much what Stuart does anyway.

One of the few regrets I have in life is that Charles Lamb beat me to it when he wrote "A Dissertation on Roast Pig". I'm all for meat but I wonder if the researchers who wrote the article referenced above forgot one of the most basic rules of scientific endeavor - that to the effect that correlation and causation do not necessarily walk hand in hand. In simple English....seems that there is a gap between what happened and the reasons as to "why" these researchers think it happened.

Say saying, the lamb chops are nearlly ready......I doubt that they will make me more intelligent but you had best believe they are going to be delicious.

This is our sacred antenna. It's shaped like a cross, made of aluminum... Have you got any aluminum?

We still have some corn left. (for the vegans...are they the ones that do the cool neck pinch?)

Civilization...HO!

How do I make my voice do that?
