Ain’t that something?

It’s a wonder, it is.

[potlatch]

Curious and thankfully they weren’t human teeth!
Wonder if the ‘user’ was in style - at the time, lol.

[SunkenCiv]

It’s the earliest known doggie bag.

[berdie]

[potlatch]

Dang you, I wish I’d thought of that.....lolol!

If Obama carried a purse it would definitely be a doggie bag; he wrote about it in his first rough draft and unreleased book "Dreams From My Prada."

Yes - and guess what the reason was?

Savages knew they could domesticate dogs PLUS - They tasted good.

found during excavations of the 250-acre (100-hectare) Profen (map) site, which is slated to become an open-pit coal mine in 2015.

The guy that carried that thing was probably manlier than you or I. He’d probably call us gay for using shampoo.

Any word on whether the skeleton in the grave was wearing a boob belt?
