So how did kangaroos get to Australia? After the Noah's flood, I mean. There are several theories (via Conservapedia):
"After the Flood, these kangaroos bred from the Ark passengers migrated to Australia. There is debate whether this migration happened over land with lower sea levels during the post-flood ice age, or before the supercontinent of Pangea broke apart, or if they rafted on mats of vegetation torn up by the receding flood waters."
Well OK then.
Wait, are there really creationists who believe that Pangea (the one giant continent) broke up and the continents all moved to their current locations all in the last 6000 years?
Oh, and there was a post-flood ice-age?
Also, I learned a new word:
Their entry on kangaroos, for instance, says that, "like all modern animals . . . kangaroos are the descendants of the two founding members of the modern kangaroo baramin that were taken aboard Noah's Ark prior to the Great Flood."
You may not recognize the word "baramin." It's a 20th-century creationist neologism that refers to the species God placed on earth during Creation Week. Special for kids: I wouldn't use that word on the biology final. Although maybe your parents could sue the local school board for failing to teach the Book of Genesis in science class.

Or the human.
Still, that first 95 feet would probably be glorious.

I'm not crazy about sleeveless at all to work, and I know I'm way in the minority on that one.
I'm a little uncomfortable wearing a sleeveless shirt to work without a sweater or a jacket. And honestly, I'm going to need a cardigan or something tomorrow because what's comfortable outside at 90F isn't going to work in the office deep freeze.
Apparently Jilli and I are secretly workplace prudes.
I once worked at an office that had their AC set a bit too low. When it was 90 out, I'd have to wear a long sleeve shirt and a wool sweater, and I'd still feel cold. When lunch came, going out in the 90 degree heat felt
so nice....
My rules is, you're ok if your shoulders are covered, not ok if your boobs are not. So if you're wearing a cardigan, I don't care what's under it unless you're having trouble wearing it without pulling it over your boobs.
Yeah, there's sleeveless and then there's sleeveless. If your definition of sleeveless basically means tank top, though, not so much.
We used to wear the denim rule-breakers all the time. But we would wear them in black or khaki and no one ever noticed. Or cared enough to say anything. Of course, this was at the full business wear dress code, but steel toes company. Resulting in me climbing shelves in a skirt and steel-toed moccasins. Good thing the dress code was so modest, huh?
