Homo Floresiensis ‘hobbits’ found in Indonesia not human?



It could explain a lot.

{[preparatory aside] 
I hope you don't mind that I played off the species taxonomy angle. I though your meme pic was v.funny.
Sincerely,

Different Species?
Yes: Demonicus Cankcalus — or, to be more accurate, DemonCraptus Demonicus Cankcalus, subclaid Tantruminus Screechicus.
Also N.B.
If you look closely at the photo, on the viewer's right, you'll see– next to what biologists term the creature's “screeching orifice” a pair of lumps presenting almost verically– and where the bottom nodule is noticeably larger than the top one.
These are two new offspring “budding away” from the parent.
To clear up one misconception (of many) concerning the habits of Cankcalus: 
It makes no difference that Demoncraptus Demonicus Cankcalus hasn't mated w/the species opposite sex – the dreaded DemonCraptus Exemplarious Daemonicus, subspecies Stuprumraptus Womynius Pueripotius – in almost three-quarters of a century!
Like verminous insects, such as cockroaches, the Demonicus Cankcalus will, from a single coupling, store what genetic material it needs for a lifetime of use.
I hope this helps. ;~)❱

The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug

If you liked the Lord of the Rings Trilogy films and The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey, you will probably like The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug.  Although for your Tolkien purists, they did change a few things (minor film spoilers)


Hey, they actually introduce a species not seen for a while in the Hobbit franchise...

A woman: Lost's Evangeline Lilly



Of course, Evangeline Lilly is playing an (new) Elf character, Tauriel.  It would be nice to see a few Hobbit women, or maybe, that unicorn of the LOTR world, a Dwarf woman (why do they tease us).  The crew gave her a hard time.  
I am not even sure who this character is (she is not in the book), but if she is in the film I will let you know...

But there is a dragon too.  And for you Ron Paul fans, hoards of gold.  
Wombat: Talking about dragons and gold, the Weinsteins are suing over profits

Oh, and if you have problems figuring out which dwarf is which...


Update:
Smitty:  A Hobbit on a quest for warm socks.
I did go see it last night.  Without giving it away (I assume most of you have read the book), if you liked the first Hobbit, you will probably like the second Hobbit, and then we will be doing this again next year over the third Hobbit.  While this could have all been done in one film and I thought the pacing was off, it was entertaining and I did like Evangeline Lilly's character.

Hot Hobbit Women Rule 5

Or we could call them the sultry sirens of the Shire...but I am sorry.  There appears to be a lack of Hobbit women in The Hobbit, An Unexpected Journey (although we did get Rosie Cotton in the original trilogy in The Fellowship of the Ring and Return of the King).  

Update:  Reason gives a fair review of the movie.  I agree.  The film is not great, not terrible, but hopefully the next installations are better.  

So, given the lack of material, I am forced to substitute this gif of Jessica Alba instead.  


It is not widely known, but many beautiful women are quite attracted to Hobbit men.

You know what they say:
Big feet...big other things.  
While there are an almost complete lack of Hobbit women, there are some elf women.  Here is Evangeline Lilly in a back stage gif:
