He would return. He's a biological anthropologist.


That's my right shoulder, courtesy of the Lexington First Choice walk-in clinic. The day before I left for Lexington, I separated it playing wiffleball. Yes, wiffleball. I dove for a pop up and came down badly. And no, I did not hold on to the ball.

I've got a tight schedule on this research trip, so I can't afford to take time off to rest the shoulder. Besides, this late in the summer research season, you're not a biological anthropologist if you're not dinged up. It comes with the territory. (Do I need to explain this is a sports reference?)

Here's a few more biological anthropologists, getting a send up on last week's Daily Show.

I'm off to a bbq being hosted by the museum curator. It sure beats pistachios and avocados.

  1. Skulls were different only 1,000 years ago? Does that mean there might have been morphologically different humans at the time of European Contact? I think it would be great if you combined anthro posts with Katzy posts.
