Illustration over this text is an x-ray of a mummified football found recently in Rome. A team of anthrozoologists was called in and determined the specimen in excess of 2000 years old. Signs of skeletal trauma suggest the poor creature had been repeatedly kicked and thrown --modern science refers to it as Peditesphera.
Exhaustive research of surviving Greco-Roman sports literature supports the theory that p.-sphera replaced earlier, solid marble balls after centuries of goal-kicking and pass-receiving injuries to players.
Later, Ius Animalis Actisvarum (animal rights activists) developed a method of inflating rubber sheaths with compressed air and modern footballs appeared. The immediate predecessors were free to rejoin the evolutionary pageant, grow wings etc. and are now known as ducks.
And....the Ducks are currently at #6 in the CFS, so yes. It all fits together. This it the time....it is destined to be.
ReplyDeleteDear Mike, I have experienced mild versions of some symptoms associated with that ailment this past year, but don't have CFS. However I'm sometimes seized by brief bouts of mental clarity and physical vigor --which can be unnerving.
DeleteOh my goodness. I must pay you a compliment. You have such a strange mind (and I mean that sincerely).
ReplyDeleteThanks Emma, both for your compliment and assessment of the novelty --this mind, which likes to have fun.
