So Easy A Caveman Could Do It

I've got to admit. I'm excited about the possibility of the Geico cavemen guys getting their own primetime sitcom. Read about it here. No matter what I think about Geico, I love their commercials with the cavemen! There aren't that many ads that I'll stop and watch, but if I'm flipping through the channels and see a caveman in a white tailored suit ordering "Roast duck with the mango salsa", I'll stop and watch. What is the appeal of these cavemen? I don't know, but Geico hit the nail on the head with these guys, and now it looks like thirty second commercials may just end up a 30 minute sitcom.

Speaking of cavemen, I can't remember the name of the book, but it suggests that if we eat like a caveman we will be perfectly healthy. I don't know, maybe this has some merit to it. There was nothing processed or cooked, it was all-natural. Their diet had to consist mostly of fruits and vegetables (How desperately hungry did the first guy to try cauliflower have to be?), nuts and berries, and, of course, meat for protein. It seems somewhat logical to me. You never see a fat caveman. Of course, they also had to start their own fires from rubbing two sticks together and try to keep from becoming a mid-afternoon snack for a dinosaur, so I guess health had a trade-off.
