Excerpt from Side-Stepping Ill Health

The first dinner party, the origin of all social life, was given by a gentleman named Pithecanthropus Erectus, an ancestor of ours, with a beetling brow, protruding lower jaw, and long arms reaching below his knees. He was covered with a nice thick coat of reddish brown hair, which was very useful as well as ornamental in those old days before they understood the utility of clothes.
