THE human face is shrinking.

At last--proof Nancy Pelosi is human.

Men. Check you hairline. I'd say (for many of us) that your face is getting larger.

“Many men then would have had the shape of Arnold Schwarzenegger’s head while women might have looked more like Camilla [the Duchess of Cornwall]."

The horror, oh the horror! I'll have nightmares tonight.

I saw another study in Scientific American that also linked smaller heads to liberalism. It stems from the need for significantly less gray matter. In fact their cranial vault is filled with 90% cerebellum and only 10% cerebrum. Enough to control the basic motor functions and little else.

Except Teddy Kennedy's.

That's not true of Ted Kennedy. He's got at least two chins he never used to have. And jowls that would earn a basset hound's sympathy.

In Big Head Ted's case, his shrunken cerebellum is suspended in ethanol and the cerebrum has become an artifact like the appendix

Not entirely true.

Ted Kennedy's head is filled with whatever alcohol metabolizes to. And I don't think we need to elaborate on his motor skills.

[He said: “Many men then would have had the shape of Arnold Schwarzenegger’s head while women might have looked more like Camilla [the Duchess of Cornwall]. By contrast, Tony Blair and George Bush are good examples of the more delicate modern form.”]



In about 10,000 more years we'll all look like Tony Randall.
