Wow, has it been that long since I did this? Oh well, no big loss. Found this very interesting tidbit in the news, thought I’d pass it along.
LEICESTER, England (Reuters) – Sex was first recognized in the fossil records more than 500 million years ago and the oldest known penis is about 100 million years old, a conference heard on Friday. Ok, they actually had a conference on a 100 million year old penis? That is just too damn funny just makes me laugh. “To my knowledge it is the oldest penis. I don’t know of any older,” Professor David Siveter, of the University of Leicester, told the British Association science conference.
And here I thought that Bob Hope held that title. Shows what I know. Sounds like Guiness Book Record material to me. In fact the ostracod fossil had not one penis but two. Gee and there’s another record. I can see the cloning/genetic splicing going on right now. Man grows second penis!! Oh well, its better news than I’m getting on CNN nowadays!
