It was wonderful, and yes, us Auld Pharts wandered off and found a nice quiet spot and yacked without imbibing Until the time for 'cat's train began to get near, and FE and I both decided to hit the highway for the drive home.

We do need to do it again sometime.

Teuf, the movie was fun, but far too much gratuitous swooping and panning just to take advantage of the 3-d. And of course everything running at or being thrown at the camera.

I feel bad for not saying bye, to a bunch of people actually, but we were getting so egregiously exuberant that Calaver got us to walk it off.

And then 'Trox and Lock On Lock On and us got lost looking for the train stop. Some townies we are.

We're making a meme out of that movie.

IN that there are no birds. Only dinosaurs.

That reminds me of my parents Parrot. A female Eclectus parrot. Her claws make this quite audible clicking sound on the hard wood floors. My parents and I agreed it is reminiscent of the raptor scene in Jurassic park so she is called Naomi Raptor the Red Doom Chicken.

And I STILL want to know the answer to this:

If all birds are dinosaurs, and all dinosaurs are reptiles, why do we classify as birds as being in a different class as reptiles?

In other news: I fully agree with Madrugada. We need to do this again.

Because birds have evolved far enough away from common reptiles.

And later Dinosaurs aren't really properly classified as reptiles being warm blooded, hollow boned and feathered.

because they aren't. Like Shima pointed out, dinosaurs themselves are distinct from regular reptiles which are a family even older than the dinosaurs but are still around, kind of like how crocodilians aren't just living dinosaurs either.

And I guess the common ancestors of birds were flighted and spread around the globe and then mutated into the big and small and strange and sometimes flightless species we groups together as birds :s I mean, how you gonna call a penguin a dinosaur? Nope.
