Of Biblical Proportions

Cairo is under seige from locust. Press reports stated the locust are "of Biblical proportions". Now, if I ever saw a locust the size of a Bible, I'd leave the place.

In the Bible, there are people reported living several hundreds of years to 1,000 years. Some have suggested there was a mistranslation and it might have made more sense if years instead meant months. Yet, wouldn't it be interesting if humans were actually meant to live for 1,000 years. First, it would kill Mel Brooks's 1,000 man comedy routine because, well, it wouldn't make sense anymore. Perhaps that would explain why we only use 10% of our brains. We are meant to live 90% longer and use the whole brain.

Which proves the point that many have been arguing: we basically are a brainless bunch.
