Holy fossilized hyena poop Batman. Scientists have discovered human hair in a piece of 257,000 year old fossilized hyena poo. Hmm, a slow moving Neanderthal no doubt. Anywho, not only did this person become the hyena’s lunch but they had bad friggin hair. The lack of hair scales on the sample suggests they weren’t shampooing or conditioning much and the abrasion on the ends means they were probably sleeping in rock crevices. Sucked to be them.

Searching For the “Evil” Gene
Years ago I read a book by a Quantico profiler who had studied some of the worse serial killers in the US. He hinted that it was highly probably that there was a direct link between their actions and a dodgy gene. However, the FBI were reluctant to confirm this in fear that it would act as a loophole for lawyers to get their clients off. So where am I going with this? Well, today it was announced that a group of United States geneticists want to study Newtown school killer Adam Lanza’s remains, in the hope of finding a mutant gene. The problem is, if they do identify it, then what? We test people for the “evil” gene and ?????? Hmm, there’s a stigma you just don’t want.

Who’s Funnier, Men or Women?
Hey Doc, What Is That Rash?
Oh my, if you are a senior cit you may want to sit down for this. Seems STDs amongst the oldies are on the rise in the US and syphillis and chlamydia are the top rankers. In the past 5 years the increase of sexually transmitted diseases among those 55 and older increased by 43%. Oh and if you live in Florida make that 71%. Seems no one gave them the safe sex talk. The increase is being blamed on healthier lives and Viagra. Hmm, obviously there is more than just bingo happening at retirement communities.
