I just learned on PBS that we all came from..

[alexd]

sponges!!!!!

great,great,great,great,great,great............................. grandparents pictured above ^

 

[nusty]

why do I not quite beleive this????

oh well, i guess its time to open my mind to uncoventional thinking and accept Tribe Laws of Evolution.

 

[nusty]

For what its worth I like the feet sponges the best.

 

[alexd]

imagine how deep the ocean woud be if sponges didn't live there....

 

[nusty]

how deep is the ocean now?

Alex, explain.

they were saying that every animal on the planet (including us) evolved from sponges. they figured this out by sorting through DNA of every animal species and it turns out that that the common base genes are sponge genes.

therefore, we are all related to sponges (some of us probably more than others, but nevertheless we are all spongefolk inside )

to add another scientific leap: I postulate that this is why when you gently poke someone with a stick they are sort of springy.

therefore, the springyness indicates the spongyness

... and if you go to the Peel Pub, they'll squeeze out those beer-soaked sponges into a pitcher to serve you "draught".

I learned on Seinfeld that many women use the sponge as their preferred method of birth control.
