Back when our ancestors lived on a diet of roots, bark and the occasional treat of charred squrriel, this must have been what made them believe in a higher power.
There's nothing more I can say except to try some _ possibly after a night of moderate drinking or rodent barbecuing _ and see for yourself.

squirrels ain't rodents
Oh, Crimenotes. You would have made a terrible caveman. Or biologist.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Squirrel
1.) Wikipedia is not an authoritative source. 2.) Squirrels are not rodents. I'm reading "The Ancestor's Tale" by Oxford zoologist Richard Dawkins. On page 180, it makes clear that squirrels and marmots are closely related (sciuridae), with the next closest relative being the humble mountain beaver (aplodontidae).
Squirrels are not rodents.
Well, I never cite wikipedia in actually substantive matters anyway, but page 180 is certainly impressive. I mean, wow. Page 180! I don't know how to react. It's times like this when I wonder what Oprah would do.
I like to think she'd char the fuck out of whatever ground mammal she couuld find that had meat on its bones. Regardless of its membership status in the order rodentia.
That said, Crenshaw melon totally rules, and I love intramural debates on taxonomy. Especially when I win them.
And you won.
On page 181, Dawkins proceeds to talk about the wonderful versatility of rodents, including those who live in forest canopies. Yes, squirrels.
Thus concludes 2005's answer to the Lincoln-Douglas debates. Squirrels are, in fact, rodents.
Flop you did not seriously post the the blog after basically closing molly's did you? Out of control.
(On the bright side, I'm feeling like official drinking partner of cole slaw blog right about now, and by "now" I mean "at work monday I feel like I'm still drunk")
Man alive -- while we're on the subject of CSB's drinking activities, I'm going to abstain from future imbibing when it's this hot and humid. Twice this summer I've gotten totally fucked up from what would otherwise be an evening of moderately excessive imbibing. My pale skinny frame cannot handle alcohol in this weather.
I think I gave up drinking this morning for the third time this week. So, clearly, I hear ya.
Seriously, I can't stand this weather. It's ruining my life. The weather will be cooler in New Zealand, where we are all moving.
