BREAKING NEWS:Neanderthal, Cro-Magnon, Homo Sapiens and the Stone Bowl
The Neanderthal Man, it seems, played bridge ("and what about the Neanderthal Woman?" will ask the feminists; in fact, and very seriously, we cannot say for sure women existed at that time because science books only mention the Neanderthal Man). Stone tablets have been found lately, from year minus 32,000, on which one could read the tallies of the hands.

An archaeologist, himself a bridge player, suggested that the numbers, and their disposition, looked like bridge. It was easy, after that, to decipher the abbreviations. A funny chap said that the game had probably been played between the National Hockey League (NHL) and the Canadian National (Railroad company, owned by the Canadian Government), hockey players' behaviour seeming to come out directly from the middle Palaeolithic, and CN's old equipment probably dating from the same era.

After protests from NHL and CN representatives, the experts concluded that NHL meant Neanderthal and CN, Cro-Magnon. Then again, we don't know if women existed because experts talk solely of Neanderthal Man (from year -150,000 to year -35,000) and Cro-Magnon Men.
