“So that’s what happened to Hagrid.”
That made me chuckle.

[this didn't just happen]Your addition to the title made me LOL, something I haven't done much of lately. Thanks.
To: Arthur McGowan
How did all those dinosaurs die before Adam sinned?

I would think rather like animals die today. Old age, accidents, disease, etc.

A large curved claw on its "thumb" is a bit of a mystery, as paleontologists aren't sure what function it would have for an herbivorous beast that's not snagging meaty prey. An interesting tidbit.

Google will find it for you...its down by Moab...SE corner.
To: ClearCase_guy
That was interesting, but based on their earlier discovery of the same fossil. In Roman times Augustus (I think it was) traveled out to see an accidental discovery (someone was digging a foundation or something) of what was apparently a large fossil of some sort (whale, dino, whatever) somewhere in Greece, or maybe near modern Greece in the Balkans, and acknowledged the spot as the final resting place of some legendary giant, or Hercules, or somethin’. Okay, yeah, that story kinda meandered...

That’s because when the dinosaur bought the farm, there *were* no maps. ;’)

This thread has unleashed a lot of pent-up humor, and I’m about to give them all a collective rimshot. Wait, you won’t want to miss this!

So did I. Sadly, I was given a witch and ended up marrying her (thank God I wised up quickly).

Didn’t the first dinosaur discovered (in Europe) have a spike sticking out of its hand. An Iguanodon I think it was called.
To: gleeaikin
And the first fossil man was found at the site, he’d apparently been trying to pluck the spike out of the critter’s paw. ;’)
