Winters Were Brutal
You think it was easy to keep a cave warm all winter when they hadn’t invented the furnace yet? Sure, Cave Dudes invented fire right away, they had to, but it was still a major pain to get one going because the match was a ways off (a couple of centuries, to be [...]

Cave Men Were Romantic
Though it’s not very well known, because sappy greeting cards hadn’t been invented yet. But Cave Dudes always brought flowers home to their Cave Babes. And they’d pick them themselves, because, of course, there were no Florists yet. Here’s a little known fact: one of the first businesses to open was, in [...]

It Happens All Over The World
People celebrate New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day in different ways: some party down and bring in the New Year and hardly remember it the next day. Some are a little more low key, choosing to spend the night, or the next day, with friends and/or family in a [...]

That’s why they say “Trick or treat” instead of “Treat or trick.” They didn’t have treats [...]

Cave Men Were A Surly Bunch
No surprise there. They didn’t have much to be happy about, since almost nothing had been invented yet. Nothing that we think of that usually makes a guy happy. No cars, no sports, no TV, no beer. It’s a wonder Cave Dudes didn’t just jump off a cliff to end [...]
