Huh. The kid is eye-bawling directly into the other cameraman’s lens to show his pain, but I suspect that the snake was already dead. Is that a genuine un-cropped National Geographic photo? I don’t know, Babs, but I do know this.
NatGeo changed several years ago when her new editors veered from illuminating the fascinating fields of anthropology, zoology and botany, and began promoting the pop pseudo-science absurdity that “humans-are-destroying-the-universe.”
Now will someone please remove the snake carcass from that kid’s leg before he depletes his acting skills?

I don’t usually comment on my own posts except in response to others, but this irreverence by the late Sam Kinison is apropos.

You are utterly neanderthalic in your political musings but you really have kick-ass taste in music

Mike– That’s funny. You leave a comment to insult me and compliment me at the same time, kind of a yin-yang vibe, so I’ll roll with it.
Please edumacate me and everyone here about the government and politics of the neanderthals. I can’t find a link. :D

Mike– Oh wait. Neanderthals were anarchists. No property rights, no ethics, steal what you can and try to protect what you have; hand-to-mouth subsistence. Nah, I’m not a proponent of “neanderthalic” politics.
