Stromatolites are layered mounds, columns, if you will, and sheet-like sedimentary rocks that were originally formed by the growth of layer upon layer of cyanobacteria, a single-celled photosynthesizing microbe. Now I think we all know where Democrats came from: Stromatolite waste. I won’t be eating any of these, with or without curry.
Some of us buy the macro evolution BS. For me it was a good deal. As a college junior, I was taking an overload, packing my radiation biology & plant physiology along with organic chemistry. One afternoon in the lab, we were assigned to study the odd Euglena , a primitive unicellular eukaryote which used sunlight via chlorophyll in daylight and absorbed food particles at night: half plant/half animal and a descendant of the stromatolite formers. As usual, we were to sketch what we saw and label microorganeles. I glanced over, and a freshman coed was copying my sketch! I enquired why and she replied that my sketch was better than her microscopic image. Thanks to the little Euglena, we began dating, married after she graduated and have been married 53 years!
Thank you, Kid. That Euglena sketch thing, I forgot to mention that the one celled thing had what they term a 'red eye spot'. Uncommon, but seen in a few other microorganisms, it is a primitive organ which directs the cell towards any light. When I noticed the young lady copying my every pencil line, I drew some nice EYELASHES on the 'red eye spot'. She burst out laughing..still laughs at me. The jist of Groundhog Day IMO is how he finally took advantage for self improvement using the otherwise dreadful situation of repeating every day. Plus it was funny..sitting in the bar complaining to the drunk, "What would you do if you were stuck in one place and every day was exactly the same, and nothing that you did mattered?" Ralph: "That about sums it up for me."
How are they in a curry sauce?
ReplyDeleteMuch better with a sauce Bearnaise Mustang. You need to first boil the democrat out of them.
DeleteThey look like they belong in my cereal bowl of cocoa puffs. btw, I think the blue ones that are really really old are called stromatolite thurmonds.
ReplyDeleteDaBlade I'm going to take your word on that.

ReplyDeleteMustang, preparing and cooking them can be a dicey affair best left to North Korean military members who routinely forage for food.

Celebrate that which works BB ! Congratulations on 53! So Gold is at 50, what comes at 53? Wife choice? Husband choice?
DeleteI'm afraid I won't get there. 40 something tops.
BB, just checked your profile. Movies. Groundhog Day - One of my favs. Gets right to the heart of the matter doesn't it?
