: The Thrill
Dec 15, 2006

I think we learn the rush of thrill at a young age. I have a toddler niece that is a real thrillseeker. An adrenaline junkie. Like there is no consequence, I’m not sure if she doesn’t learn or doesn’t care. But she would jump off the house if you let her.

Antarctic Dinosaur Found

A Plesiosaur fossil was recently found on Vega Island off the coast of the Antarctic Peninsula. It was a four-finned aquatic prehistoric creature (like the one many think is swimming around even today in Scotland’s Loch Ness). Apparently it was a five-foot-long baby, and is one of the best preserved Plesiosaur RenderingPlesiosaur skeletons ever found. Back when it was swimming the seas, the area’s climate was tropical. It’s speculated that it died and was well preserved from the debris of a volcanic eruption (remember, there was a lot of volcanic activity around Antarctica, contributing to the black rock you often see contrasting the white ice and snow in many photos). You can read a full article from ABC, Reuters or the Associated Press.

    I am a serious adrenaline junkie!!! Although I’ve only seen snow like 3 times in my life, so I’ve never been sledding.

    OrAnGe JuIcE— Hoblo pequeño español también. Me gusta su cotización. ¡Yo deseo ir a España realmente gravemente! ¿Vive en España o usted está visitando?

    I love speaking spanish! I was reccomended to take an advanced class my junior year (which is next year)

    I just found this comic, and have already read all of the archive comics. I love it, it reminds me a lot of calvin & hobbes– of which I am a long time fan. Can’t wait for the next one.

  20. Do you believe me OrAnJe JuIcE? Jurassic Park is my favorite book and movie. And if you read the book you get more understanding of the DNA sequence. It’s really cool.

    (Malcolm) Excuse me? Excuse me? You are going to have dinosaurs on you dinosaur tour aren’t you? Hello? knock knck knock…
    (Hammand) I really hate that man.

    Amo hablar español y desearlo era mi primera lengua, no mi segundo.

    Hey ! Je parle francais tres bein, non? Penguin Luvr 20 (or Kayla), I speak Francais too! Ca va? (sorry, my computer can’t do the accents) Also, qtpa2tnh, I subscribe to Zooboks too and I got my Polar Bear issue like a week ago! 😉
    Also, what’s up with the new Mr. Green (:mrgreen) thing?

  38. Sheena says:

    Sorry, I meant :mrgreen:

  39. qtpa2tnh says:

    Here is my fact : Most of the polar bears’ life is spent by hunting .Its favorite food is seal blubber .A polar bear wonders far and wide in its search for seals .Yet when it finds them , they aren’t easy to catch .A polar bear uses many different techniques to hunt seals. But most often , the seals get away , and the polar bear must continue its lonely search .

    Qtpa2tnh’s note : I think it’s good that most seals get away for one , because they are so cute(ecpecily[sorry if misspelled]the babies!)!.. And , it helps the population grow .

    P.S. Sorry Tyler for taking up space . 🙁
