Contributions

Sherman the shark, in discussion with his friend Ernest, attempts to come up with contributions of value that can be attributed to human beings, or "beach apes." Ernest seems to believe there are none, but Sherman demurs and credits us with inventing Oreos.

The discussion is held in light of the discovery of a fossil that shows where life diverged to produce land animals and the aforementioned land-dwelling primates. Since Sherman's Lagoon creator Jim Toomey has been known to be looney, it's possible we'll see a time travel series in which lagoon denizens journey back in time to prevent the rise of human beings. So stay tuned; it may even turn out that we're good for more than snack cookies.
