The Best Ordovician Horseshoe Crab in the World - Earth Day

Dating back in time to the Ordovician age 450 million years ago horseshoe crabs are considered living fossils. These ancient invertebrates' eyes are a million times more sensitive to light than humans, but they don't have wear sunglasses, while mating in mud or sand of shallow coastal waters of the East coasts of America and South East Asia. Sadly these extraordinary creatures are threatened by extinction in the Atlantic Ocean, due to pollution and over-harvesting to provide bait for eels.

In Asia their eggs are a delicacy for the Thais.

For ages I thought แมงดาจาน or maeng daa sounded the same as แมงดา to the farang ear, but แมงดา means pimp and it's difficult to tell the phonetic difference between แมงดาจาน and แมงดา when drinking beer at the beach of Ban Amphur.

Few Americans have ever tasted maeng daa roe, but it's delicious or ความอร่อย anywhere in the world, but never after they've made love.

The Timeliness of Horseshoe Crabs - All the Best Earth day

Fotos from beneath the Broad Channel Bridge June 2025

Now awaiting on Clinton Hill for the Summer homecoming of the Horeseshoe Crabs.

Rene Descartes author of The Age of Reason had argued that animals had no intelligence, because they had no sense of time. The rationalist lablled them 'automata'. or mndless creatures. To argue that accusation horseshoes crabs return to the same beach to lay eggs year after year according to the cosmic time of the moon and have for over 400 million years well before Man needed a clock to know the time.

Eternity now

Horseshoe crabs only exist on the East Coast of America and Southeast Asia. A species 440 millions old according to man's calculations. I know nothing thankfully. Happy Earth Day econsume.

SINDAY AFTERNOON AT THE BONEYARD

The only name I recall from the tombstones of the Howth cemetery was Quigley, a young man, they all are to me, was tending to the family plot. I respectably backed off the grave. Brian had lived in Howth all his life as had his antecedents underneath the soil. Tight with words he said succinctly, "Howth a country all on its own." I walked away with a nod leaving him to the prayers and the wind.

Ice Age Fini 2022

The last Ice Age ended somewhere around 11,700 years ago.

Since then glacier around the globe have shrunk from the North and South Poles.

In 2017 I resided in Juneau, Alaska. The Mendenhall glacier was fourteen miles from my house. I have yet to hike the Western Trail to the ice caves.

The couple running the salmon shack near my place of work said I had better go this year.

"Next year they won't be here."

I planned to hump the trail this coming Friday.

5-6 hours.

Alone.

In bear country.

But fuck it.

I am one of the last Neanderthals.

We loved the Ice Age.

Mostly because they were no humans.

Go Neanderthals Go 2016

The Neanderthals dominated Europe and Asia for almost a half-million years. This species vanished from the Earth 24,000 years ago. Anthropologists once blamed the fall of the Neanderthals on their stupidity, while recent studies have revealed that the ancient men had larger brains than their homo sapiens descendants and were stronger and taller than as well as better adapted to the colder climates of the Great Ice Age.

The mystery of their disappearance has troubled scientists, although a report in the BBC suggested that Neanderthals were already on the verge of extinction and the final shove came from drastic changes in the weather.

I beg to differ for I have theorized that Neanderthals did not vanish, but their DNA fused with homo sapiens at the end of the Ice Age.

I actually feel Neanderthalic after a couple of beers.

My brows are thickly padded by bone. My arms and legs are shorter than most men my size. My torso is long. Thankfully I'm not hairy. I detest hirsuteness in a man and avoid bearded women.

I guess that makes me a race traitor.

Go Neanderthals Go.

Neanderthal Future 2020

Why are we here on a suddenly threatening planet?

It is not because the Chinese ate bats in Wuhan.

>We are to blame, for having destroyed this loving blue ball in Space.

No humans can accept this truth, while devoted to driving fucked-up SUVs, eating poison potato chips, and drinking shitty rich motherfucker Budweiser in honor of a pedophile god-leader Donald Trump.

You are what you eat and Neanderthals were mostly vegetarian according to their poop pits.

Sadly we are fucked and fucked good.

World Population 2050 - 500 million.

In that year I shall be ninety years old surrounded by my tribe of Neanderthals in Ban-Nok Thailand, drinking lao-khao. We are comforted by the love of our people and knowing sloth is not a deadly sin.
