Creo que el dinosaurio se olvido viendo la belleza de la noche y la estrella y así llego con retraso al arca de Noé, y su raza se extinguió.

I think the dinosaur forgot himself seeing the beauty of the night and the star and thus missed Noah's ark, and his race became extinct.

Es difícil imaginar, ya sé, pero algunas personas creen realmente que los humanos y los dinosaurios coexistieron en la tierra a la misma época.

It's hard to imagine, I know, but some people genuinely believe that man and dinosaurs existed on the earth at the same time.

We still do Billy ... if you count crocs :) - jellonz, Oct 8, 2017
doh! of course :) - billygoat, Oct 8, 2017
Some dinosaurs believed it, too. You inspired my post. :D - jrschenk, Oct 8, 2017
Entonces no crees en los Picapiedra? ;) - 00376109, Oct 8, 2017
@Coffeelate, Buena pregunta. :D - jrschenk, Oct 8, 2017
Good one cafecita loool. Of course! Fred was the greatest :) - billygoat, Oct 8, 2017
Crocodiles are archosaurs, but crocodiles are not dinosaurs, though dinosaurs are archosaurs. Birds indeed are dinosaurs (and hence archosaurs as well). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Archosau - bosquederoble, Oct 8, 2017
All C is A, but no C is D. All D is A, and all B is D. Therefore all B is A. Got it, thanks Bosque :) - jellonz, Oct 8, 2017
Cladistics, cladistics, cladistics. Reptiles are not a natural group without including the birds. :) - bosquederoble, Oct 8, 2017

No es difícil creerlo, pero muchos creen que todos los dinosaurios se extinguieron hace mucho. Pero cuando yo veo por la ventana, con frecuencia veo algunos de sus descendientes volando por mi jardín.

It is not difficult to believe, but many people think that all the dinosaurs went extinct a long time ago. But when I look through the window, often I see some of their descendents flying around my garden.

Alguien debería darle una bocadillo a este pobrecito. Se ve un poco huesudo.

Somebody should give this poor guy a sandwich. He's looking a little bony.

Es insultante cómo siempre son nos están representando a nosotros estar desnudos; Yo siempre llevaba mi piel para los grandes eventos. Deberíamos haber comido al último de esos humanos, pero no, Clyde, que Dios lo acoja en su seno, nos rogó que no lo hicieramos. Dijo que eran una especie en peligro de extinción. Por mi parte, eran suaves en el exterior y crujiente en el interior.

It's insulting how they are always depicting us as naked; I always wore my skin for the big events. We should have eaten the last of those humans, but no, Clyde, God rest him, begged us not to. He said they were an endangered species. For my part, they were soft on the outside and crunchy in the middle.

too funny, J R - Echoline, Oct 8, 2017
Gracias a ambos. - jrschenk, Oct 8, 2017
They're probably also annoyed that when we do depict them with skin it is normally grey. Feathered dinos were colourful it seems, and some scientists are now suggesting T-Rex may have been purple! The creators of Barney might have known something. - jellonz, Oct 8, 2017
Hace una maravilla ... ¿los dinosaurios adolescentes tienen acné? ¿o teñir sus escamas fucsia? - jrschenk, Oct 8, 2017

I didn't notice the eclipse in the photo until you pointed it out. :D - jrschenk, Oct 8, 2017
There's a MrEclipse on the bottom of the screen. - NKM1974, Oct 8, 2017
I know, so obvious, but still, I missed it... I fixated on the dinosaur. :D - jrschenk, Oct 8, 2017
