My paper today had this story from the NY Times:
- A 425 million-year-old fossil found in England, may be the oldest record of an animal that is unarguably male. Scientists report today in the journal Science that the tiny crustacean, only .0002 of an inch long, had an unmistakable penis.
In their paper, the scientists name the creature Colymbosathon ecplecticos, which they say means swimmer with a large penis.-

The moderators should ban it from the forum as well.

I can imagine the holiday conversation.

Grandma: So, Johnny what are you doing these days?
Johnny: I'm a scientist.
Grandma: Oh that's nice. What are you studying?
Johnny: Fossils. Early origins of life.
Grandma: My, my. Have you learned anything?
Johnny: Yeah, the other day we found the world's oldest penis. It was quite large.
Grandma: Oh my, Johnny!

I saw that, pretty hilarious. If one were a triathelete, that might be a funny handle to use. ;)

I think I might have a learning disability - when I read the post at first it said "Columbusathon Eplileptics" and I thought it was a charity event in Ohio. Time to start drinking.

I looked for a cult to join, then decided to just play "Sink". Hey! I sank Toledo, Ohio!
