Default Favorite dinosaurs or other ancient reptiles?

Dinosaurs at About.com


What was your favorite dinosaur growing up? How about now? I will bet that many a TOTVer has had to memorize the names of many dinosaurs just to keep up with the grandkids and their dinosaur obsession at whatever age it happened for your family.

I drew probably 50 various dinosaurs on black postcards and sent these to family members when they were on their dinosaur phase. I sure had one back in the 1960s.

Have any really good sites for dinosaur facts, pictures, exhibits, etc?

Paleontologists aren’t immune from wanting to inject a little humor into their discoveries

Aegrotocatellus jaggeri – a trilobite named after Mick Jagger (and, oddly enough, Aegrotocatellus means “sick puppy” in Latin.

2nd would be Fred's pet, Dino

That's true about paleontologists and humor. http://thedragonstales.blogspot.com/...eontology.html
