HUMOR Re: A hadrosaur femur Xmas wish. :o)

["Ray Stanford" <dinotracker@earthlink.net>]

Dear John,

    Being omniscient and precognitive, your Xmas wish (= prayer) was
answered even before you asked. Long ago I washed a little Paleocene pollen
down upon and around that Late Cretaceous 'Hadro' bone and a few other such
disarticulated bones in the general vicinity.

    Hope you like the job I did.  I'll admit to sometimes getting my kicks
by keeping people wondering.  :)

    Now that I have spoken, there should, of course, be no more bones of
contention.  :]

    Merry Christmas to all, and to each, a good site. (I'd bet each of you
can really dig that gift!)

    G_d

Dear God,
please let there be Paleocene pollen in with this bone.  And, if it's not
too much to ask this Xmas, please let there be some other hadrosaur bones
pretty near-by the first bone.  Grant these gifts, and I will never ask
for another thing.
