The Ultimate Chicken Joke

Okay, what does a T-Rex have in common with Col. Sanders?  Well, it all began when Gateway Pundit came up with the same headline I was going to use.

Or – why did the T-Rex cross the road?

Which came first, the T-Rex or the egg?

Does T-Rex taste just like chicken?

WARNING:  This blog posting constructed while author imbibed a large dirty gin martini, with extra olives.  I’m still blogging lite.  Half of my books are off shelves that no longer exist.  The new closet is painted.  I now have a very nice utility closet.  I need to paint the wall before we put up more shelves on the morrow.  Rumsfeld was so naughty (Uncle Raymond was here so he was showing off) I locked him in the kitchen.  While the other cats fled, Bat Masterson hung out for awhile, but then fled.  The only one who stayed out through it all – yep – Miss Piggy.  Oh, she now knows her name!  Tomorrow is going to be a rough day.

Oh, I had one huge laugh today.  I have a friend who lost her battle with pancreatic cancer Easter morning.   Several years ago my mother and I along with another friend I will call “Rosebud” transferred into her DAR chapter.  Immediately “Rosebud” and Jane clashed.  “Rosebud” made her life a living hell, eventually being elected Regent.  She treated Jane terribly when her cancer was diagnosed, refusing to allow a state-wide prayer message to go out.  I was Vice-Regent at the time.  Well, “Rosebud” who had been a ‘friend’ for nearly 8 years, turned on me.  Jane’s diagnosis that the cancer was terminal upset me terribly.  I received an email this evening telling me that her children have contacted “Rosebud” and told her not to attend the funeral, which is on Sunday.  This is hilarious.  Jane had the last laugh.  “Rosebud” will rant, rave, and complain about the ‘slight’ the rest of her life.  Jane won. 

Pardon me if I don’t cry crocodile tears for Don Imus.  Couldn’t happen to a better liberal.  I’ve been so angry and insulted over the years at the horrible things he’s said about Republicans, conservatives, and more importantly President Bush, that – well (please picture razberry being blown).  He deserves all the good fortune that is coming his way.  What I find so humorous is the way most liberals are defending Iums while Republicans are ticked and think he is now feasting on the table of delights his vile mouth created.  Conservatives – well it’s a toss-up.

Imus has said terrible, nasty things about President Bush.  Let’s face the fact that he has helped cloud the truth about Bush and the things going on in this country.

All I can say – don’t let the door hit you on the way out!

WHY DID THE T-REX CROSS THE ROAD?

Funny thing happened on the way to the Scopes Monkey Trial… I think today Darwin’s law has been confirmed, and more importantly, I have a perfectly rational – please note – perfectly rational reason to be terrified of birds.  I’ve been telling everyone for years that birds are descended from dinos.  Of course this gives a whole new meaning to the joke – what would a T-Rex taste like – well – just like chicken! This is a huge break-through.  Several years ago they did some DNA on the Triceratops and discovered a DNA connection to modern day turkeys.  Hummingbirds – my guess – Velocraptors!   DAMN!  Gateway Pundit stole my headline.  

“…A comparison by Asara’s team of the amino-acid sequence from the T. rex collagen to a database of existing sequences from modern species showed it shared a remarkable similarity to that of chickens. Amino acids are the molecular building blocks of proteins; there are 20 of them used by organisms to build proteins, and their precise order is determined by instructions found in DNA. “I’m grateful that he was able to get the [amino acid] sequences out. That’s the Holy Grail,” Schweitzer told LiveScience. This finding supports the idea that chickens and T. rex share an evolutionary link and bolsters previous research showing that birds evolved from dinosaurs and that birds are living dinosaurs. “Here we have a real molecule from a real dinosaur, and it’s much more similar to a bird than it is to anything else,” Carrano said.,,”
