"Mystery Human" interbreeding with ancient hominid species?

Well here is a fun topic for Thanksgiving dinner:
Scattering his mojo through time? 
Interbreeding with Neanderthals (and Denisovans too).  Some people who could be part Neanderthal...  Here is a great suggestion, pick out family members and guests who you think best capture the Neanderthal look! For those who reject the Neanderthal-Human hybrid talk, the shared DNA could be from a previous ancestor to both Neanderthals and modern humans.  Update:  Denisovans in Spain?

Querry:  Can we really call them separate species if they can successfully interbreed (without producing infertile offspring like a donkey and horse producing a mule)?   Another way to describe it is inter-fertile (as in a wolf and a coyote may be separate subspecies, but can breed and produce viable fertile offspring).

But if science is not your bag baby, you can instead shill for the Obama administration on how Obamacare is better than sweet potato pie!

Update:
Rule 5 Paleo Cave Woman!








Proto-Feminist!  I think we found Janeane Garafalo's missing link!

Paleo blogger Glenn Reynolds meets paleo diet author Nell Stephenson




Nell Stephenson qualifies for Rule 5.  And my use of "paleo" is intended as a good thing.


Rule 5 Rubycon

How Cro Magon paleo ancestors likely looked...healthy!

Of course the wheel and woven cloth did not exist during most (if not all) of the Pleistocene, 
so you can use your imagination and remove them from this photograph...

Embrace the paleo diet...
