Did someone say MOONBAT? I am not a Moonbat. Republicans are moonbats for opposing government run healthcare. No, I am not a MOONBAT.

/Sarcasm OFF

Before I clicked on this thread, I asked myself, “I wonder whether Hillary or Helen will be the first to have her picture posted.”

Life Extension Magazine should feature her and do a “make-over” with all them longevity/rejuvenating things in their “fountain-of-youth” arsenal.

—fossils of a now extinct walking bat suggests that the modern-day bats descended from 20-million-year-old Australian relatives.

“We were amazed to find they were virtually identical to the bats in New Zealand today,”

WHAAAAAT? if they are the same then maybe they weren’t extinct
