A meatier meteor victim?

dinosaur1.jpgBlog Guy, I’d like to buy my boyfriend a real dinosaur skeleton for his birthday. Where is a good place to get one?

Luckily, dinosaurs haven’t been this abundant for about 65 million years. You could try the usual specialty shops, like The Lizard Wizard, or Carnivore Store, or even that boutique ice cream and dinosaur outlet, Cones ‘n Bones.

But really, I think your best bet would be the upcoming Triceratops auction, though keep in mind you’ll have to assemble it yourself, like an Ikea desk or something. Or, if your boyfriend would settle for a mastodon, there is a garage sale in California

Eight hours, $50 an hour … let’s see — I’ll bid $500, but only if that includes delivery and setup.

The reason most guys could care less about fossils is there is no such thing as a human penis bone. I’m just saying…

Madge, have you been dieting?

Is there ample evidence the meaty mastadon met a mighty meteor mere moments before death?
