Dr. Rag's Spoofee Graduate Class Topic of the Day: Gorillas gave human's crabs! There will be a "quiz" posted later for graduate school credit on the below applicable to you Doctorate degrees in "Freebies and Good Deals." The "average score" will be a 10/10!!!! Please, no chewing gum, no drinking or eating during the quiz, and, keep your hands off those unmentionable areas I don't want to see any scratching going on during the quiz. No eating of any parasites found on your body please wait for the break in the lecture to consume the same. Please refrain from looking at LiveSquid's paper Preco! And Clubby, you have to put the lemonade back into the fridge to "harden up" while the quiz is administered! KMa, you cannot ask your baby for the answers, and, DanC, please lock and load your riffle and place it on my desk until after lecture time! diGriz fork over the spitballs you have already in your mouth, I see where you have them aimed! SharonL why are you and Faerie planning your vacations, put that away! Joyce you are not allowed to read Better Homes and Gardens during the quiz, please place your copy on my desk now! Spoofee Moderators will be required to close their lap tops to prevent surfing and cheating on the quiz. Now, paper and pens ready, good luck! Dr. Rags

Humans caught pubic lice, aka "the crabs," from gorillas roughly three million years ago, scientists now report.
Rather than close encounters of the intimate kind, researchers explained humans most likely got the lice, which most commonly live in pubic hair, from sleeping in gorilla nests or eating the apes.
"It certainly wouldn't have to be what many people are going to immediately assume it might have been, and that is sexual intercourse occurring between humans and gorillas," explained researcher David Reed of the Florida Museum of Natural History. "Instead of something sordid, it could easily have stemmed from an activity that was considerably more tame."
Humans are unique among primates in that we host two different kinds of lice—one on our heads and bodies (Pediculus), the bane of many schoolchildren, and pubic lice (Pthirus). In comparison, chimpanzees have only head lice and gorillas only pubic lice.
