“Life’s journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting, ‘Holy shit! What a ride!’ "

Not that I needed any more convincing that Dinosaurs and birds are similar. I have looked cold reptilian death directly in the eye of an emu after all
fear the Emu as they are a bad tempered bird................ then again if i was creature that at times had numerous blood sucking ticks attached to me i'd be surly to. hmmmm could of sworn a few years back i watched a show where they were using emus and their ticks to create an anti toxin for the ticks poisoning. could be wrong.
"You know, I used to think it was awful that
life was so unfair. Then I thought, wouldn’t
it be much worse if life *were* fair, and all
the terrible things that happen to us come
because we actually deserve them? So, now
I take great comfort in the general hostility
and unfairness of the universe."
