Anyone who doesn't get that shouldn't be on this thread ;)
Did he have health insurance?
Proves the existence of time travelers!
I can accept a lot of what scientists say about the distant past -- but they always seem to push it too far. Is there any evidence of the use of Datura in this particular instance? Or are we just engaging in bald speculation?
Since when does science == wild ass guessing??
Evolution and Global Warming are filled with people who like to assume, guess, speculate and model, and then declare the result to the "science".
Obamacare?
Yeah, that looks like early Obamacare in action.
I’m sure a related find reveals the antiquity of the joke, “Busier than a one-legged Neolithic Linearbandkeramik period hunter-gatherers in an ass-kickin’ contest.”
Did someone say Datura??????
"I told Gern not to worry it wasn't going to hurt at all. He was quite the ladies man, even with one arm!"
The “physician” could have saved the limb, but he was a greedy Stone Aged doctor who was looking for a bigger reimbursement.
It was the day after the amputation that Ooog, (D) submitted the first legislation aimed at single payer health care.

Of course “[specialty] is surprised to learn that [ancient culture] did [something]”. When you assume they were all as dumb as a post in the first place, everything they did right is a surprise...
But of course, these were the items of which we speak:
Helen was quite the cougar even back then!
An elderly warrior?
