Uneasily. There were dinosaurs all around.

With a great deal of melancholy and one eye open b/c all their friends were dead. :(

Permanently. :(

Large doses of Ambien.

“Since we cant observe living non-avian dinosaurs directly, some of these questions have to remain in the realm of speculation”
Really? You mean like that “fuzziness”?

Bearded dragons go under a rock and curl up with “spikes out” in case a nocturnal predator’s nose comes by.

Well, all I know is I wouldn’t want to sleep with a snoring dinosaur. Imagine!

I can’t figure out some politicians sleep after screwing up our country so badly.
Why would I care how a Dinosaur slept.

DINOS are Gay/God Hates DINOS
That had to have been an anti-Barney protest. Well, there *is* that saying about broken clocks..
After all, the purple perv has that book about climbing into bed with kids, ugh.

They’re a wonderful animal ... as soon as the temperature drops below 80, they just switch off and lie in the sand looking dead. I wish the boys had a similar function!

If only, and no need to crank up a/c, either. You would only need to slip those cooler freezer paks into the bedcovers and voila, snoozasaurs, all. Hmmm, good for road trips as well. “Here’s your seat cushion. It’s the law!”
