A paleontologist in the making

Today, I was on the phone with an old friend when I had to interrupt the conversation to ask Squink to take the dinosaur guts out of his mouth...

You know the person on the phone is a friend, because he said "Maybe when he is older he will tell me what they tasted like".

I replied "Plastic". (Imagine if I had said chicken)

Can I say I was glad that Squink was not eating a coprolite, and just a plastic unreasonable facsimile of that which makes it?

    Hum, guts? Coprolites are not guts are they?

    Do you have plastic dinosaur poop?

    No, I have a coprolite and I have plastic dino guts... coprolites, to be very general, are made in the guts of a dino.

    I have not chewed coprolites, but I have sucked on an ammonite (it was damned hot, and I was out of water).

Your comment is awaiting moderation, it was just easier to go this route than to have those insane word verification boxes that are shockingly hard to read!
