Yeah...so shut up brybaby II or it will turn into sex for you and
Hornus. Hornus always gets his woman!

When I suggested you try a different tactic than the one that -I- was using,
I was hoping you'd catch the implication that it be a good one. Now I always
get my women?? And "Hornus"? I feel like I'm back in grade school.

I quit.

He does seem to be enjoying himself a little too much. As for myself,
it's
time to bow out. This is way off topic, and getting out of hand. If he
was
something more of an intellectual challenge I'd be tempted to stay the
course, indeed I'd -have- to stay just to show I hadn't lost; but as it
stands I'm just going to look like an ass for beating up on the
simpleton.



What it really looks like is another defeated loser hits the road.

Mmmm...I'll leave that to the court of public opinion.

Btw, listen to shortwave a little longer than 4 months rookie!

Good advice...I'm certainly planning on it. And thanks for bringing this
thread back on-topic...even though you're too thick to realize that's what
you were doing. gbg Goodnight, beerbarrel.

PY 1991
LS In Ger. with Ger. and Engl. summ.
AB Two explanations have been offered for the descent of the testes in
mammals,
both of which are frequently cited in the literature. MOORE and co-workers
argued that the phylogenetic rise of body temperature caused the
translocation
of the testes. According to PORTMANN, the descent of the testes was due to
the
evolution of the scrotum as a signal. However, both the sensibility of the
extra-abdominal testes to temperature elevations and the optical effects of
the
scrotum can be interpreted as a consequence of testicular descent rather
than
as its cause.


Years ago I reads an article equating temperature with fertility.
There was a huge difference between conception rates per capita when
comparing tropical climates to the northern regions.

If I remember correctly, there was roughly a four to one relationship.
An 'eskimo'(1) or Inuit would have an almost one hundred percent
chance of pregnancy per copulation, where the tropic dwellers would
have sex on the average of four or five times before pregnancy occurred.

The reference to body temperature plays into this. The scrotum is used
to regulate the temperature of it's contents, but his can only work
within certain set parameters. Climate can easily override the built
in mechanisms.

It makes sense when viewed in the perspective of food and climate.
It's a lot harder to survive in the far north, so courtship and
offspring have to be made in a careful and methodical manner.

The adventures of Cook and others in the South cover the other aspect.

I thought you were going to bed?

I'm desperately trying to. Are you ****ed that you haven't yet gotten the
last word? And why are you so concerned with me and my bed anyway, huh?

Don't answer that.

Will this homosexual innuendo never cease?

I tried to bow out of this gracefully. I'll try it again.

Why do you think they're booting him out of the Forces? Getting caught
so many times in flagrante delicto, they HAD to do something. Not only
were the optics bad, but the soldiers were starting to complain of the
weird tasting mashed potatoes and all the short hairs in the pastry dough.

Also, please refrain from using the word 'innuendo'. He misinterprets
it as something second personally anal, causing him unwarranted arousal.
