Jurassic Duck
Posted by Dorkafork By now you've probably heard about how paleontologists found fossils of galloping flesh-eating kangaroos and a "demon duck of doom." A team from the University of NSW (UNSW) made the discoveries in three new deposits during a recent two-week dig at the World Heritage Riversleigh fossil fields in Queensland. Unfortunately, that is not all the team did.

Posted by: dorkafork at July 13, 2006 02:42 AM The funny thing is, I bet you had that p-shop in the can for like 3 years, waiting and praying for your opportunity to use it ... Posted by: Bill from INDC at July 13, 2006 07:58 AM "Prof Archer said the flesh-eating kangaroos did not look anything like their modern day cousins. "They were galloping kangaroos, they didn't hop," he said. "They were also far more muscly than the kangaroos we know, with sharp sabre-like incisors and powerful forelimbs to help rip and tear their prey" So they looked kind of like this? http://tinyurl.com/lj4dx Posted by: B Moe at July 13, 2006 08:45 AM You are proud of yourself, aren't you dorkafork? Posted by: Robin Roberts at July 13, 2006 10:43 AM Yeah, I'm going to show this post to my grandkids someday. Then again, I've listened to the sound file I made a couple of hundred times, and it just does not get old. Posted by: dorkafork at July 13, 2006 02:46 PM I'm just saying that it didn't earn you a free drink at the next RMBB. Posted by: Robin Roberts at July 13, 2006 09:30 PM My daughter just saw this and said, "Life found a way." Posted by: gail at July 13, 2006 11:00 PM "Demon Duck" Were they referring to Howard the Duck? Posted by: rbj at July 14, 2006 09:55 AM The name of the image file tops it. Posted by: Grayson at July 14, 2006 05:21 PM Heh. Grayson's right. Posted by: SeanH at July 14, 2006 06:03 PM When I read the "Roo" description I thought about "Raptors"
"They were galloping kangaroos, they didn't hop," he said. "They were also far more muscly than the kangaroos we know, with sharp sabre-like incisors and powerful forelimbs to help rip and tear their prey" Raging Roo Raptors Posted by: The Drill SGT at July 16, 2006 05:17 PM Dear mister Duck, here's another joke about another duck you might know LOL Posted by: Donald at July 20, 2006 03:05 PM ionolsen23 Great website!
