A new ID challenge at Hannity.com

It would help us all if next time you are designing (sorry I can't use Ed and intelligent together) stuff you made some notes so we wouldn't have to try and jog your memory about these things after the fact?

Went thru a tough time, Darat. Pretty much everything from 700,000,000 BCE to about 3,456 BCE is a blur.

The distribution of the topics across the forum doesn't help matters (nudge, nudge).
 
Humans=protect brain
Penguins=provide targets to 1, above.

I am progressing well at working this out. What other bipedal creatures are there? Not apes and monkeys. Bigfoot?
Emus and ostriches. Some of the other primates will use bipedial locomotion when on the ground. Gah...he listed quite a few and now I can't remember them all.

What, did you create alcohol circa 700,000,001 BCE?

Ah but Ostriches are the exception to the Ed rule -they stick their heads in the ground to stop them being injured!
 
Look around - I think the evidence for a designer pretty much indicates he created home-brew first.
I disagree. I think it started out innocently enough. Much like an erector set gone wrong. Ed and his buddies were sitting around, playing with the "Build your own universe" set one day, and things were going swimmingly when one of them (and Ed, you'll have to provide who, exactly) shouted out "Hey guys, watch this...". Shortly there after, alcohol was created and that was, as it's said, that.

ETA: there are quite a few native African mytologies like this. The creator creates, looks at what he's done, shakes his head in disgust and wanders off to greener pastures, leaving a band of idiots lesser gods in charge. Personally, if I was forced to believe in a creationist myth, it would be along those lines.
 
You are assuming that you are aware of all of the intoxicants that I have conjured up over the ages. Silly mortals. I keep the good stuff for myself (and the kid).

You see, with me there is no distinction between an hallucination and physical reality. That is to say that in my case "hallucination" is an undefined term.

If you doubt that, you need only look here

http://parisfacial.ytmnd.com/

to see that there are some rationales that are best described as ineffible.

Also, let me let you in on a secret....
There is ****
there is good ****
there is great ****
there is dynamite ****

you know this already but there is also .....

Godly **** which is my personal stash and I am, as you know, a jealous God...

Ed,
Have you been "debating" with Iacchus again?
 
Sex standing up... yummy. Thank you TOE. The use of tools while having sex standing up, even yummier. :)

LOL
IIRC, the sex theory was that it was so we men could expose our peni better, and the women could hide their vaginas. How this is a benefit, he didn't get into, but he did name the woman who has posited this theory for further research. If someone has a copy of "Ancestor's Tale" close to them, they could look it up. Otherwise I'll have to look when I get home...if I remember.

Is that where you find the information on the evolving methods of our "Ancestor's Tail?"

And to think I always considered Fonzi to have the evolutionary advantage on thumb uses.

Happy Days,

You are a ****head, Paul
 
Considering that the ancestors of penguins were bipedal, we shouldn't be surprised that they haven't evolved to walk on all fours again. It would mean converting their wings to use as feet, which would be a big step, I'd say. Could it happen? Sure. But we shouldn't be surprised that it didn't. Especially since their wings were being selected for other traits - that is, being good flippers. The bird whose wings were slightly better for walking on (in whatever way) would be out competed by the bird whose wings were slightly better for swimming with.

But of course, thing could change. Especially if there were some change in the environment that made locomotion on land more important - like the introduction of some terrestrial predator to Antarctica.
