This Boy Would Have Confused Darwin

This morning I was doing a brisk little canter/gaiting session with Carley and her older brother whose name we will not mention in order to protect him from any regional hostilities that he might have generated.

We were discussing Neanderthals. I explained that they were broad, thick and powerfully built. I explained that they likely had a level of intelligence below ours and that they probably had a very limited vocabulary.

"Sounds like they were a lot like people from Missouri," said the unnamed rider.
