Protoceratops was a vegetarian. I didn't know that. Are you sure? Then maybe the protoceratops shown in the image I posted was sniffing the body of the velociraptor to see if maybe he had found a pineapple?
Whatever it was he was doing to the velociraptor, he sure died suddenly.

The rest of the find indicates that he was fighting for his life when the sand dune they were at the base of collapsed, entombing them both alive.
Some days, it just doesn’t pay to get out of bed...

During the 1960's a Polish team discovered an amazing fossil specimen-a Velociraptor and Protoceratops locked in a deadly fight. The duo was likely fighting when a freak sandstorm buried and killed them. This fossil was recently on display at the American Museum in New York.

Oh, sorry, I was just going by the very first sentence:
When the dinosaurs died out some 65 million years ago, many perished in the exact same iconic pose: neck, spine, and tail curved backward, mouth open, limbs contracted.

“Dinosaur Death Throes” = great name for a garage band...
To: null and void
I think they may have been playing...
To: Hegemony Cricket
For their stage show, they could wear rubber masks of well-known MSM characters, or the Clintons. :’)

The name “Talking Heads” was already taken, so...
Maybe the first album could be called “Fake But Accurate” or “Extinction Level Event”.

Hmmmmmm. Now imagin a group the does covers of Jerry Garcia and David Byrne songs.
It would have to be called ‘Talking Deads’...

David Byrne died? I didn’t know. Not that I was ever a huge fan, just thought I always heard about stuff like that.

Good Lord no!
But Talking Deads is what you get when a band plays only Talking Heads and Grateful Dead songs...
