Subject: RE: BS: The Dum-Dum is for dumbasses!
Those kinda dum dums can come in real handy at times, Rapaire. Nope, we are talkin' about the gorilla blood ceremonial here. Strictly for dumbasses that are still sittin' in the bushes and pickin' fleas off the next guy over.
I don't know if Edgar Rice Burroughs figured chimps for the Great Apes or not, but I don't really think so. I think he got confused between one kind of gorilla and the other. Either that or he figured that real gorillas are so butt-ugly that he couldn't take it, so he made up some other kind of phony gorillas for his story. Yeah, that's probably it.
He was right on about the Dum-Dum, though. The way he described it is just how the Bush gorillas do it. (and some around here too) They're almost as bad as humans! Ha! Ha! Ook! Ook! That was a joke.
