Devo Say 'Stupid' Sarah Palin Proves Their Theory of Devolution

[Adenoid_Hynkel]

The experts weigh in:

You've talked about how humankind continues to devolve; was there an evolutionary peak that happened at a certain point before devolution came in?

Casale: I'm not sure if I have enough perspective to know where that peak was. If I talk to other people that are prone towards musing and theorizing, they think it was earlier than the 20th century that it peaked. We thought it was right after the A-bomb, a last hurrah.

Mothersbaugh: In that the slide towards de-evolution got an extra kick in the pants.

Casale: If you were writing the new Bible, instead of BC and AD, it would be AB, after the bomb.

What do you make of Sarah Palin's bus tour across America to historic sites?

Casale: Say no more. We rest our case. We've often said this, but if somebody in 1980 with a crystal ball had showed you the world in 2011, you would have thought it was a cheap, B-movie sci-fi dystopia that would in fact never happen, and dismissed it. Now it's here, in all of its horror. You talk about stupid, you can't beat Sarah Palin!

4. Last I checked.

The beer and travel money has not arrived.

So not sure what you are talking about it being here.

Unless you are talking about having friends, but that does not change that I am due beer and travel money.

8. DEVO - cool story, bro

OK...as with most of you - Elementary Talent shows were mostly kids lip syncing to popular music and a few talented kids playing piano or singing for real.

We decided in 7th grade to perform Whip It. Of course, we needed to look like DEVO. So...I called around to some local garden shops (Evansville, IN) to find flower pots like those.

When I was asked how large I wanted the pots to be, I innocently stated - 'big enough to fit on my head'

I was hung up on....had to get my mom to drive me to a store to get the pots.

Our act was a success and I still love DEVO (at least the 1st 5 albums - got into heavy metal after that).
