Miss conceptions

It amazes me that people think Brittany Spears is a super talent, a mega star, an icon of the music industry.

I wonder what these people would think if she looked like Eugene Levy...

humans are filthy as pigs and dumb as rocks

Just think how unbelievably smelly and filthy humans have been for thousands of years. We only just came up with indoor plumbing a couple hundred years ago, if that. Shitting their brains out with no toilet paper. There breath must've stunk. Teeth falling out. No deodorant.

The human race has been filthy as pigs and as dumb as a box of rocks for pretty much their entire existence. And now we think we own the world. What a bunch of fucking morons.

Waiting patiently for massive extra terrestrial impact to wipe us off the face of the earth. Or at least massive tsunamis and earthquakes that will ravage our cities and leave us to die arid foodless deaths in the boiling hot deserts the land will become.

Or perhaps bears will inherit the planet.

Birds are dinosaurs

Paleontologists have named about 1000 species of dinosaurs depending on what journals you read. They believe that makes up about 1/5 of what was really out there during the mesozoic era, "the age of reptiles". Sixty five million years ago, this Sunday, they suddenly all disappeared. Or did they? What we believe now is that the last major extinction of life took only the non Avian dinosaurs. Some of those pesky "hole in the hip socket" reptiles still exist. BIRDS. Tonight when you go home and eat a half of a roasted chicken, you're eating a dinosaur. When you walk through Central Park tomorrow in New York City and you see a pigeon walking along the path next to you, you're walking with a dinosaur. That's correct. Birds have evolved from a type of dinosaur much like humans have evolved from a type of mammal.

The link, or the "missing link" as it is sometimes referred, is Archeopteryx. The first bird fossil ever found. It was found in 1861 in Solnheim Germany and it is considered to be the most famous fossil ever found. It is an impression in stone of a perfect specimen. So much so that the ribs of the feathered wings are clearly visible. At the AMNH in NYC, we compare the complete skeleton of Deinonichus, a dromeosaur, to a scaled model of Archeoptyrx. The similarities are incredible and hard to ignore. The fused wrist bones, the straight and flattened tail, the large singular claw, the tree toes, the expanded rib cage, etc.

Stop by the AMNH for a free tour to learn more. Tours given by yours truly FNK, mostly Saturdays and Sundays. This Saturday in fact at 1:15 and Sunday at 3:15. You too can learn more about the planet you live on. Planet Earth.

The only thought I have is ...

"The human race grosses me out"

With all their fatness and foul behavior

It's a wonder the job of the housekeeper.

Today is the longest day of the year. One hundred million years ago it was the exact same day but the dinosaurs could care less. There was one small mammal that was concerned however. And it wrote about it. Oddly enough the essay was just found in a cave not to far from New Jersey. In it the mammal suggests that thirty five million years from the day it wrote it, there would be another mass extinction. Obviously it was an extremely informed little mammal. They think it was a small glire. A rabbit of sorts.

No other documents were found in the cave. Authorities are concerned that it was staged and that this little glire from the Cretaceous period never wrote anything.

I, FNK, believe that this furry little critter probably wrote many things, but didn't have a large audience and quickly lost interest in the art of writing.
