I think men who hunt and fish are emotionally detached from the creatures - if they were emotional towards them, we'd probably all be vegetarian. (Or if they were socialized like the Native Americans, they would thank the animal for giving up it life for us.) The thought of pulling a wriggling fish off a hook completely freaks me out.Paulanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8604756439843084387.post-50128192321741236092009-05-01T08:00:00.000-07:002009-05-01T08:00:00.000-07:00I don't know about that show - I wonder if it will...I don't know about that show - I wonder if it will come to Portland? Sounds VERY cool. Yeah certain things bring out men's core instincts (women's, too), no doubt - overall, with lots of exceptions. Re swine flu, I am not even listening to the news right now, the opening story is always the swin flu. Is it the newscasters/managers or the public that always needs to live in a state of fear and dread? People here in PORTLAND are buying face masks, etc. Joe Biden made some alarming generalizations about the danger (and his PR people tried to say what he "really meant").Paulanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8604756439843084387.post-62380736219094647612009-04-30T23:09:00.000-07:002009-04-30T23:09:00.000-07:00Thanks for the pics and the post!

Then again, it's almost as if she has the mind (and mouth) of a 4-year-old.Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00276983605649747408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8604756439843084387.post-84661794166401172512009-04-30T16:54:00.000-07:002009-04-30T16:54:00.000-07:00There's evidence of tools made for "cavewomen" sho...There's evidence of tools made for "cavewomen" showing that women also hunted. Just sayin'.... Have you ever threatened a mother's child? She'll kill you - TWICE! I'm all about nature/nurture, but I hate the idea that men are only 'hunters' and women are only 'gatherers.' <br /><br />THAT feminist statement said... I loved this post. I remember seeing the dinosaur bones when I live in the Midwest and they are absolutely amazing. I wish that show would come to Spokane!!Colleenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14019600232378827754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8604756439843084387.post-52174541548606786032009-04-30T13:43:00.000-07:002009-04-30T13:43:00.000-07:00Love this post!
