You use Lawry’s?
Shit, I never use anything but Stubb’s on hominid primates.
A nice spice rub is fine for the young ones, but the older folks need to be marinated for at least six hours.
And I don’t know about you, but in my estimation nothing goes better with roast bonobo than a cool, refreshing aborted fetus smoothie. Mm-mmm good.
You guys are having way too much cynical fun. Kudos on derailing the topic with an albeit interesting, yet messed up, topic.
Have those tribes encountered any ill effects from their cannibalism, or is that only if you consume the brain?

Handsome group of Gentlemen there…Is that Sly Stone second from the right?
I always wondered what happened to him…Interesting info on those culture anyway,

are they immune to that or what?[/quote]
Oops. You’re right. That was Quasi. Sorry about that.
Funny you should mention mad cow disease.
As it turns out, eating the brains of humans or other primates does put one at risk for a disease called Creutzfeldt-Jacob disease, which is a spongiform encephalitis just like mad cow, and with a similar cause: an infectious protein in brain and spinal tissue called a prion, which is like a semi-evolved virus.
Symptoms of CJD, a variant of which is called “kuru” (shaking disease) in Papua, are uncontrollable laughter and shaking, followed by loss of mental and physical coordination, then later paralysis and death.
I’ve always wondered if kuru wasn’t responsible in some part for the prevalence of the “zombie” myths. A kuru patient in the abulatory phase of the disease would certainly have the shambling gait and slurred speech of a character from a zombie movie, and if you asked him the cause of his ailment, he’d likely reply “BRAAAAIIINNNS!!!”

It’s a good trick, Mr. Pony. Shame it’s your only one.
And anyway, there are only 50,000 bonobos left, and 65 million Congolese. Tell you one thing: if I’m gonna roast and eat any hominid primates in the Congo, it ain’t gonna be no bonobos.

All the more reason to spring for the bonobo. The rarer the dish the more of a delicacy it is.[/quote]
Yeah, and I’m sure California condor is pretty tasty if you cook it right. Me, I’ll stick to pheasant and turkey.
And as a purely practical matter, I think it would be more sporting to hunt Congolese guerrillas than Congolese gorillas. Much craftier ape by all accounts.
There’s that squatting position that most Americans can’t properly perform.
That’s because most Americans are so fat they cant see their knees any more and forgot how
to squat anyway.

This is a leap of galactic proportions.

Not really. Considering how close Tyre is to London, I’d say it was a leap of continental proportions. [/quote]
lol. Touche my good friend.
