Man, this whole "Discovery of America" deal is just ALL topsy-turvy today!

First, this story: Chicken Bones Suggest Polynesians Found Americas Before Columbus, and then I just saw another story that says the FRENCH got here even before that--Ancient Frogs Rafted to the Caribbean.

I guess they sent the ancient Frogs so that in case they didn't make it back, no big deal. Still, I think I would have given them something a little bit sturdy than a raft.

Frogs discovered Australia. (They had actual boats with sides.) They actually discovered it several times, according to this story. One lot stayed in Sydney Harbour six weeks and then left.

They probably didn't like the food. And Sydney waiters are so rude.

If the waiters were so rude, seems like they would have stayed. Would have been just like being at home.
