New favorite name of a sibling set that I read the other day:
Fox, Fawn, and Colt......someone's in touch with nature
I had an interesting conversation with my coworker/friend the other day about life and evolution. We started out by discussing how evolution is a known fact that has been proven by science. And of course, the main question is where did it all began? Even if before "time" the universe just kind of came to be, well what caused it? What was there before the universe came to be? Even "nothing" had to have been "something." Anyway....my friend said "I believe in evolution, but the one thing I don't get is if humans evolved from monkeys, how come monkeys aren't turning into humans every day? And on that note, how come we dont have a bunch of half monkey/half humans walking around everywhere?" I suggested that maybe there was a point in time when monkeys were forced to evolve into humans and then they just stopped one day when they didn't need to. Then I wondered about those lazy humans and why they haven't devolved back into monkeys? Anyway, I'm no evolutionary theorist, but it made for a funny conversation. We may eventually write a book entitled "Robyn and Ashley's Theory of Life and Evolution."
Hahaha....that's life for now.
