Is this the real life?
Is this just fantasy?
Caught in a landslide,
No escape from reality.
Open your eyes,
Look up to the skies and see,
I'm just a poor saur, I need no sympathy,
Because I'm easy come, easy go,
Little high, little low,
Any way the wind blows doesn't really matter to me, to me.
Mama, just killed a man,
Put my teeth upside his head,
Took a nibble, now he's dead.
Mama, life had just begun,
But now I've gone and thrown it all away.
Mama, ooh,
Didn't mean to make you cry,
If I'm not back again this time tomorrow,
Carry on, carry on as if nothing really matters.
Too late, my time has come,
Sends shivers down my spine,
Body's aching all the time.
Goodbye, everybody, I've got to go,
Gotta leave you all behind and face the truth.
Mama, ooh (any way the wind blows),
I don't wanna die,
I sometimes wish I'd never been hatched at all.
I see a little shooting star against the sky,
Meteor, meteor, will you strike the Yucatán?
Thunderbolt and lightning,
Very, very frightening me.
(Denison O.) Denison O.,
(Denison O.) Denison O.,
Denison O.- what‘cha know?
Magnifico-o-o-o-o.
I'm just a poor saur, nobody loves me.
He's just a poor saur from a poor family,
Spare him his life from this monstrosity.
Easy come, easy go, will you let me go?
Brontosaur! No, we will not let you go. (Let him go!)
Brontosaur! We will not let you go. (Let him go!)
Brontosaur! We will not let you go. (Let me go!)
Will not let you go. (Let me go!)
Never let you go (Never, never, never, never let me go)
Oh oh oh oh
No, no, no, no, no, no, no
Oh, mama mia, mama mia (Mama mia, let me go.)
Jack Horner has a chapter set aside for me, for me, for me.
So you think you can bite me or poison my eyes?
Or maybe thagonize me and leave me to die?
Oh, baby, can't do this to me, baby,
Just gotta get out, just gotta get right outta here.
(Ooooh, ooh yeah, ooh yeah)
Nothing really matters,
Anyone can see,
Nothing really matters,
Nothing really matters to me.
Any way the wind blows.

Dude, that (admittedly amusing) clip violated the language rules in at least 2 languages. C’MON, MAN!!!

Was that Jim Carrey's Grinch in the lower-left corner?
If that was the real Santa … do you want to tick off a bunch of elves who already invented a Bag of Holding Presents, a Sleigh of Flying, and all the other equipment Santa uses to achieve his yearly mission / trip? The Island of Misfit Toys suggests what their unsuccessful experiments accomplished...

I learnt some interesting fact about birds recently
1 There are four modern Bird lineages alive today Paleognathae (flightless ratites and flying Tinamous), Galliformes (fowl, pheasants, quail), Anseriformes (ducks, geese etc) and Neoaves (other birds) and two extinct lineages being the tree dwelling Enantiornithes (who were the dominant type) and the Aquatic Hesperornithes (both of which had teeth)
2 During the Cetaceous period the Enantiornithes dominated the trees with all other Aves being small ground dwelling birds like quails and/or semi aquatic like loons.
3 After the comet/meteor hit the Yucatan and burnt the forest the tree dwelling Enantiornithes were wiped out, along with the other dinosaurs, the Hesperionithes also disappeared. It was the lifestyle choices of sheltering in burrows and then eating roots and grubs that helped neoaves survive the extinction event
4. The Neoaves quickly diversified to replaced the Enantiornithes in the trees and every other niche they could find. Strangely enough most modern birds originate in the southern hemisphere (Gondawan) as the northern hemisphere Avians were wiped out.

Not so long ago a Dutch museum acquired one of the few "complete" T-Rex skeletons in the world. The only parts that were missing was one leg (they just made a mold of the one they had and mirrored it), several teeth, and parts of the tail. It is very rare for any dinosaur skeleton to be this complete, let alone a T-Rex. I went to see it, and it was a fantastic display. They had the creature posed so that its skull was very close to the ground (and the audience), so you could get a great look at it.
And yes, no glass or fence around it.
Anyway, as it turns out the museum also does a lot of archaeological work themselves. They were busy uncovering the fossilized remains of a large herd of Triceratops, which had gotten stuck in a swamp (resulting in a mass dino graveyard). Several parts of the fossils had been brought to the museum already. You could watch them uncover the fossils live in the museum, and you could talk to the people doing it.
As I walked up to ask some questions, I noticed the archeologist was busy waiting for the insane rant of a UFO conspiracy theorist to end. This boggles my mind. Here you are in a rare situation where you can ask an expert in his field about an amazing find that is being uncovered right in front of you, and possibly learn a ton of interesting stuff. But instead this man is ranting about all the nonsense he thinks is true, and about how he believes fossils are fake. THERE IS AN ACTUAL FOSSIL RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU! YOU IDIOT! HOW CAN YOU NOT BELIEVE IN FOSSILS? IT'S RIGHT THERE!
Anyway, after the moron was done, I asked about the fossils. I also learned that apparently there's another museum in the south of the Netherlands that digs up a lot of Mosasaurusses, which are apparently found in the Dutch mud quite often. I had no idea. I also asked how long the work on the triceratops-grave was going to take, which he said would take at least 30 years. Shocking. The archaeologist also teased another upcoming find that he is not allowed to talk about, but is apparently quite huge. He was noticeably excited about it, and enjoyed answering my questions.

I want silly facts involving dinosaurs, the wierder the better.
and any weird bird facts as well. They might come in handy later.
My wife learned every dinosaur name she knows from Jurassic Park. She started naming them in the car one day. They were, T-Rex, Triceratops, Falafelraptor... That was when I stopped her as that was a new one to me, and asked if it hunted mediterranean food.
