After you're done pondering that, consider the convenient shelf that is your ear. Did we have the foresight to design pencils to rest there? Are they such a biologically terrific trait that only those with 'ear-shelves' survived (or the non-earshelf-endowed were deemed undesirable to reproduce with)? Did God create our ears understanding the great utility of having a handy place to put slender writing utensils during a busy day at the office?And why don't we have built-in pockets?

you don't have a built in pocket? weirdo.
Probably as a society evolves beyond the hunter gatherer stage and into the information/communication stage the ears evolve from being used to sense wild beasts or the next meal to a tool holder. If you've ever wondered what naked people do with their hands (being without pockets or belts) check out the Little People in "The God's must be Crazy"
I love that movie! What makes you think of this stuff Thad, it is maddness I tell you!
My ear-shelf sucks! I was just complaining about that in the lab yesterday when my sharpie wouldn't stay put and I didn't have enough hands. I think Obama probably has a great one though...
