A woodpecker's tongue is one anatomical feature, of several, that helps protect the bird's brain and enables the repeated hammering of hard wood with the head. Perhaps in several thousand generations a subspecies of human beings--those whose ancestors primarily worked in law and/or in the non-profit space, or simply people who are masochistic enough to engage in earnest discussions about politics and immigration in the U.S.--will develop retracting, cranial-wrapping tongues to put Gene Simmons to shame. Hat tip to you, sir.
