AN UNCANNY RESEMBLANCE...
My pal Abbie got a new game, "Settlers of the Stone Age," for Christmas. The premise is what you might expect...bunch of cave folk starting out in Africa, spreading out across the world in tribes. So one of the hazards is that if you roll a '7,' depending where you are (new world or old), your large-brained cave folk get attacked by either 1) a sabre-tooth tiger, or 2) a neanderthal.
I must say I was quite shocked when I saw the token for the neanderthal, as he looks exactly like my friend, 'Tiska, crawling out of the Little Blue River with a log in his hands:
"TISKA" - AN EARLY PRIMATE WHO FED ON LEECHES AND DOG BISCUITS, AND
WAS KNOWN FOR HIS IRRATIONAL HOSTILITY TOWARD BULLHEADS, CERTAIN TURTLE
SPECIES, AND SMALL FURRY CREATURES.
Amazing, eh?
