Our parents are in town so blogging is taking a backseat again. But, since they’re here, we’re doing some things we’ve put off for awhile. Turns out, the Museum in Kenya is a bit of a letdown. I did, however, learn some really important things:
This was almost misleading.
Did you know that there are some major differences between humans and chimpanzees? One of them that I noticed as I was reading is that chimpanzees don’t go to museums. I don’t know what that overly sensitive disclaimer is for, but it’s insensitive.
Here’s another fun fact: did you know that football (as in, soccer) players are the origination point of the evolution of man. That’s what I gathered from this exhibit.
I refuse to believe my ancestors are soccer players.
This exhibit did not have the same sensitivities as the previous one.
And finally, what I was doing a year ago…
Prior to a show at Cap City, with my nephew.
Dude sure does love his Uncle John
A few weeks ago, I read an online article about how chimps were the closest in intelligence to humans. Why? Because they mourn their dead, hunt in groups, and can pick bugs out of a tree with a stick.
Whoopty-crap. Call me when a chimp can write that article and post it on the internet. Actually, call me when a chimp can create the internet. Then I’ll be impressed.
Richie, I’ve met humans that can barely do the things chimps can do.
