Good news, everyone! Dolphins are getting their legs back and it’s only a matter of time before they develop opposable thumbs and come ashore to guide us!
At least I hope so. The other theory is that Japanese fishermen just caught a freak among dolphins.
“I believe the fins may be remains from the time when dolphins’ ancient ancestors lived on land … this is an unprecedented discovery,” Seiji Osumi, an adviser at Tokyo’s Institute of Cetacean Research, said at a news conference televised Sunday….
A freak mutation may have caused the ancient trait to reassert itself, Osumi said. The dolphin will be kept at the Taiji museum to undergo X-ray and DNA tests, according to Hayashi.
So after fucking everything up for the last several thousand years, capped by the GWB Administration, our evolutionary replacements are being groomed to take over.
Well, it’s not like we didn’t ask for it. Maybe they’ll be more moral and honorable than we’ve been…
dude! well, better the dolphins than the roaches, even if they -do- participate in a rudimentary form of democracy. (i read it somewhere on the internets)
the roaches do, that is. don’t ask.
