One time I found 801 year old mummified penguins and guano stains.

May the Lord be with you.

Not only is giving birth forbidden for traditional religious reasons, but burial of bodies and the raising of domestic animals are forbidden as well:

OK, folks — my turn:

The first men land on Mars and get out of their space capsule. Then from around a big rock comes a ten foot tall green-skinned woman wearing a huge amount of gold jewelry. “Welcome to Mars, gentlemen,” she says. 

Taken aback, the astronaut’s leader says, “Wow — are all Martian women ten feet tall?”

“Well…some are a bit taller, some are a bit shorter. But I’m about average.”

“And your skin color,” the astronaut persists. “Are all Martian women green-skinned?”

“Well…some are lighter, some are darker. Again, I’m about average.”

“And do they all wear so much gold jewelry?”

“Well…not the shiksas.”

How were bats able to thrive at the South Pole?

So they go to the neighbouring village to give birth and then come back home after the baby’s born, eh?

I looked up that village Mafi Dove,,,Evidently the founder of that village is claiming he heard a voice from God that the land is holy,,,,,??? Shouldn’t the government/President/head of state/,,,Come forth and tell the people not to believe in that stuff it is all superstitious p,,ignorant mentality?

Guano stains, eh? That’s pretty impressive. Did Freddie Mercury design those, too?

So they travel to have their babies, similar to high school girls of yore.

Take care, may Dublin polliwog wrangler Ho Chi O’toolemord be with you, and gesundheit.

My Mom made sure I wasn’t born in that Mafi Dove.

The melting snow also revealed tiny penguin pyramids.

Must have been global warming 800 years ago before the ice age covered up the penguins.

I wish people would leave our sacred burial places alone…

Mafi Dove has birth control down flat!

Bats were in Antarctica???

Egyptian penguins in Antartica? Much be The History Channel…..

In Mafi Dove, Ghana there is an equally old observed habit of women walking around gritting their teeth and keeping their knees together as they walk slowly out of town…

i don’t know if i’d be bragging about 800 year old guano stains…you’ll probably have to bleach it out

All three are interesting facts today!

Guano is not just from bats. It is bird poop, too, and penguins are birds. I looked up “penguin guano”, and it exists. So my bet is that the guano found there is actually from the penguins.
