An aardvark? It's getting easier to believe in creation all the time. They had a few of us with the monkey business, but this takes the cake.

The way I'm moving these days, I'm sure I'm a descendent of the sloth.

A little aardvark never hurt anybody.

A few aardvark one-liners:

Once you go aardvark, you never go back.
Tastes like chicken.
[Q] How's your aardvark? [A] Compared to what?
Is that an aardvark in your pocket, or are you glad to see me?

[PatrickHenry]

In honor of our long-ago ancestors, I've been searching for aardvark recipes, but the web is quite deficient. However, I see no reason why we can't substitute an aardvark for the main ingredient in these: The Possum Cookbook.

Hey, that looks like Phaedrus the Aardvark!

Fat: If you eat this kind of crap, fat probably isn't your biggest concern.

Interesting. I have a handier source of woodchucks than I do of possums. Woodchucks, in fact, are spontaneously generating under my shed in defiance of Pasteur and various creationist posts.

"Man descended from early aardvark"

As good a guess as any. The way mot people drive stupid these days let's not insult the aardvarks.

Your progeny have mutated far from the mark,
O wondrous and honored ancestral aardvark.

[Aracelis]

You realize of course this means we are all related to the Blue Boy in some fashion...

[LurkerNoMore!]

Sounds like the companion animal you've been looking for. And the name is easily misspelled, too!

F-111?

They took out Khadaffi's house in Libya in the '80's. Flying all the way from England.

Geesh, at one time evolutionist thought humans decended from apes. Now it turns out their wrong again. It must be from something like an ardvark. Who would have guessed that? Well don't fret if you don't like that. Maybe next year we will have evolved from a turtle or a cute bunny rabbit.

[nmh]

Just for laughs ... did they find the "transitional" animal yet which turned the aardvark into an ape and then into a human being. Or is it now from an aardvark into a human being? Whichever, it has me howling in laughter. Thanks for the humor.

a mammalian “super order”

Aardvarks Rule!

Untervarks drool!

[Nebullis]

They (F-111E) were the first wave of aircraft into Iraq in '91.

[Senator Pardek]

That's "misspelt".

[LurkerNoMore!]

Miss Pelt to you, buster.

[Stultis]

"Miss Pelt"

She's built for speed...
