Today's news-making late-Devonian fish out of water (and adapting to land) was siezed by paleontologists* Neil Shubin and Farish Jenkins; I went to school with the former, we took human anatomy from the latter.
Eons ago.
Some lessons learned:
- Neil is in a whole different ballpark from Anna
- Hands are really cool when you know what lies beneath.
- There's a rotary (ok, "roundabout") in your brain; fortunately the blood cells navigate with consummate skill, so accidents are rare.
- When choosing your cadaver, get a man, since voluptuous curves come from subcutaneous fat which is miserable to deal with.*
a quote from that bygone era -
"enough to strain the imagination of even a paleontologist..."
