Can that be correlated with why we scream when in intense pain? Does screaming really do any good?

If the approximate 5000-year-old tree’s location is secret, how do they know the tree’s age?

That Marquesas Island wedding tradition would not be so popular in Samoa.

It’s a shame that the 5000 yo tree’s location has to be kept secret to preserve it. Who would kill a tree? Well, they are out there. Look up the Treaty Oak in Austin, TX. An ex-con poured a poison around the tree to impress his meth-counselor, who he was “in love” with. The oak barely survived, how a third of it’s original size.

It happens rarely, but this time, Ripley’s is wrong. The world’s oldest tree is 9,550 years old and it’s location is not a secrethttps://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2008/04/080416104320.htm

What if the bride is wearing spike heels? Ouch!

Maria Sharapova is really good at the grunting part, every time I watch her play it drives me crazy when she does it, it’s so annoying! LOL!

Afterward it’s only the husband that gets walked over.

rah oh ya i was four percent smarter

In martial arts, we kihap when we strike. Same premise. Plus, it tightens the solar plexus to withstand a punch or strike. Grunts, kihaps, battle cries, etc., all serve the same purpose. Sudden exhalation of air adds power to the strike.

Unless it is a custom that is no longer observed and we are using past tense, I would say that the guests “lie” face down.

Q. Why did the tennis player quit making noise at the tournament?A. She was a disgruntled tennis player.

Wait a minute! Didn’t someone hit that tree with a truck ,and kill it?!? I heard that in the news!

How about when the fart? Out to be some extra propulsion there…

I stopped watching women’s tennis when they started grunting.There is a fig tree in Santa Barbara that was alive in 1492. It stopped the construction of the 101 for decades because they had to work around it.

Great science…So how come no one could ever figure out how OldZsa Zsa Gabor was…Couldn’t they count the face lift scars?

The tree is in the White Mountains in CA, but the exact location is secret.

When I visited the tree in the late 50s’ and early 60s’ the location was not secret but was hard to drive to its’ location in the White Mountains.

That bristlecone pine is protected because a doofus once cut one down and took to his lab to study and discovered that it was over 5000 years old and that he had killed the oldest living thing on the face of the earth.
