Must have been barbers long ago.

I read in the New York Times. Yesterday. Of the discovery of a 1.8 million year old skull. The experts say it’s a human-like skull. With only one-third the brain capacity of a modern human. The Times printed a photo of the skull. On the front page. And a story on page 8A.  The finding. By archeologists. Was in Georgia. Not the state. But the republic. Anyway, I find that fascinating. That this guy roamed planet Earth so very, very long ago. Almost unbelievable. Of course, maybe it was a gal. I wonder if there’s a way of telling. An artist made a sketch of what this being might have looked like. It was definitely a man’s face. With a well-trimmed beard and moustache. Must have been barbers long, long ago. –Jim Broede
