#1 One day God came to Adam to pass on some news. "I've got some good news and some bad news", God said.

Adam looked at God and said, "Well, give me the good news first."

Smiling, God explained, "I've got two new organs for you. One is called a brain. It will allow you to be very intelligent, create new things, and have intelligent conversations with Eve. The other organ I have for you is called a penis. It will allow you to reproduce your now intelligent life form and populate this planet."

Adam, very excited, exclaimed, "These are great gifts you have given to me. What could possibly be bad news after such great tidings?"

God looked upon Adam and said with great sorrow, "The bad news is that when I created you, I only gave you enough blood to operate one of these organs at a time."

#2 God looked upon Adam and said with great sorrow, "The bad news is that when I created you, I only gave you enough blood to operate one of these organs at a time."

And they both lived happily ever after.

#4 Mmm! The important relationship is with female promicuity and not brain size. If you take Humans, gorillas and chimpanzees, the testicle size relative to body mass is Chimpanzees largest, humans second and Gorillas smallest, which is the order of how promiscuous the females are.

#5 "The general rule that is emerging is that sperm production can be incredibly costly,"

Re: male fruitfly sperm are 7.5 cm long. Holy Smoke! Is Mother Nature creating a vehicle for reproduction or a plumber's snake for cleaning out a stuck trap?
