I post the following link regarding the fossil record from National Geographic without comment—because, really, what more is there to say?

THAT is really cool. And morbid. Which makes it cooler.

I agree! Plus, it's so fun to say "hyena poop" and "coprolite." (Hey, I never said I *didn't* have an infantile sense of humor.)

"What did you do at work today, honey?"

"Extracted 40 human hairs from hyena poop. With tweezers!"

The glamour! The excitement! Well, actually, it might be kind of exciting, in a weird sort of way.

Ok, so I have a weird mind. What I was thinking was what were the last thoughts that went through the protohuman's mind before it became part of a hyena turd.

Did protohumans swear? If so, this must definitely have been a real big 'Oh shit' moment. Pun intended.

lol--but since hyenas are scavengers, maybe he wasn't the first to dine? No telling what ate 'em.

Did protohumans swear?

Dunno. But I bet they screamed.
