Extinct? I think not!

Dinosaurs are extinct, you say? Well, one was recently sighted In the LA Museum of Natural History.


Extinct, my ASS! from The Original Joe Fisher on Vimeo.

Heftily ironic, given the story I was working on during my lunch break...

And, of course, that brings to mind a bit of fitting musical nostalgia...

Dude, if you want to see a dinosaur, all you have to do is visit a local park with a pond. Ducks and geese, for the win!

Or, for that matter, the scary shark I saw on Wednesday.

That's a bit like saying "If you want to see a monkey, go to a deli. Counter guys for the win!". Ducks and geese aren't dinosaurs and more than we're cavemen.

That being said, if you want to see a dinosaur, go to an ostrich farm. Young ostriches look and behave frighteningly like velociraptors.

While I would argue that some counter guys may well be Neanderthal, that's hardly a fair comparison. Take a good look at the eyes, the scales, the body movements. Birds are, in general, dinosaurs.

Freakin' amazing.
