The genus was unique because it contained the only two known frog species that incubated the prejuvenile stages of their offspring in the stomach of the mother. The genus consisted of only two species, both of which became extinct in the mid-1980s. The gastric-brooding frogs ( Rheobatrachus) were a genus of ground-dwelling frogs native to Queensland in eastern Australia.

A river? Are you kidding me? That is the stupidest, emptiest fucking thing I have ever heard.Scientists from The Lazarus Project вЂ“ named for the biblical Lazarus of Bethany brought back to life by Jesus and not the decidedly average 2008 Paul Walker movie вЂ“ are trying to restore AustraliaвЂ™s southern gastric-brooding frog. I have wasted my life and come all this way for you to tell me that life is a fucking river.

Mujo nods and says, You turd of turds, you goddamn stupid piece of shit, you motherfucking cocksucking asshole. Mujo stares at him for a long time, cannot believe what he heard. The guru opens his eyes, looks at Mujo, and calmly says, My friend, life is a river. Eventually it is his turn, he goes to a place under a big tree, and there sits the naked guru, his legs crossed, his eyes closed, meditating, perfectly peaceful - he surely knows the meaning of life, Mujo says: I have dedicated my life to discovering the meaning of life and I have failed, so I have come to ask you humbly, O Master, to divulge the secret to me. At the top, there are millions of pilgrims, he has to wait for months to get to the guru. He ascends the stairs, tens of thousands of them, nearly dies getting up there. So Mujo goes east, travels for years, walks roads, climbs the mountain, finds the stairs that lead up to the guru. The guru, they say, knows what the meaning of life is. Finally, he hears about a guru living high up in the mountains somewhere in the East. He studies Christianity, then Judaism, then Buddhism, then everything else - no meaning of life there. He turns to God, lives the life of a dervish, reads and contemplates the Holy Book of Islam - still, nothing. He thinks maybe it is literature: he writes novel upon novel, but the more he writes the more obscure the meaning of life becomes. Then he turns to poverty and humility and such, so he gives everything away and begs on the streets, but still he cannot see what life is. He thinks, maybe it's the wealth, so he becomes a businessman, starts making money hand over fist, millions of dollars, buys everything there is to buy, but that is not what life is about. He thinks, Maybe helping others is the meaning of life, so he goes to medical school, graduates with flying colors, goes to Africa to cure malaria and transplants hearts, but cannot discover the meaning of life. Maybe it's the family, he thinks, so he spends time with his wife, Fata, and the kids, but finds no meaning in that and so he leaves them.

He decides to read some philosophy and for years studies everything from the old Greeks onward, but can't find the meaning of life. He goes to work, but realizes that is not what life is or should be. Mujo wakes up one day, after a long night of drinking, and asks himself what the meaning of life is.
