Legacy, Broader Sense

WTF was that video?

[E-A-G-L-E!]

I'd like to think I've already left my mark on this world
 

Beating Nat in chess 12 times does not count.

That's 16 games with the 17th in progress.

By happy coincidence, today is the 199th anniversary of Charles Darwin's birthday!!!

Talk about leaving a mark on the world!!!

No, I can't say as I've had my Darwinian moment.  I've had my share of successes, but also failures.  But I haven't given up.  Time remains!!! 

Because it is Chuck's birthday, let's use it to try to dispel at least one big misunderstanding about what his work really meant. 

Here is a quote from him:

“It is not the strongest of the species that survives, nor the most intelligent that survives. It is the one that is the most adaptable to change.”

That, my friends, is his Theory of Evolution.

Period.

That's all he was saying.

I'm totally with ya. Or him.  Or both, whichever.   Take me.  Just like a dinosaur, I had to adapt, and over come.  Well I guess they didn't but I did.  Take the New Coke debacle, and the Garth Brooks Chris Gaines phase.
I'm not the biggest or strongest either, but I'm as adaptive and resilient as LaToya Jackson.

I don't think Darwin came remotely close to contemplating La Toya Jackson.  She pretty much breaks the idea of ****ual dimorphism.

Not saying you're like that though.  I think your plumage is very pretty.

Stroh, I think your going to have to change your avatar now..................maybe the nice LaToya picture with the snake.
