"Yes, Virginia, there is a Stegosaurus Claus!"

Sunday, September 19, 2010

"It has been hard work fighting fires in Colorado," said Stegosaurus.

"I've been a little scared too ... you know like my brother horse I'm really nervous around flames. In my film The Lost World I spent a lot of time running away from fires you know so this is a way of facing my fears. I'm so proud of the local mammals; they're so brave! With one fire out, and the second 65 % contained, I've recieved permission to stomp forthrightly back to medical school, which starts Monday."


"Recently, I have received a request for assistance from my brother and friend the Honorable Congresssaurus Triceratops of Wyoming, who is the senior member and spokesman of the Dinosaur Congressional Caucus. It seems that Congress has plans to hold hearings which will determine if he should continue in his position and retain his committee assignment. This was brought about because of his recent appearance in the news; it seems his very existence is now up for debate so he has asked his friends to advocate for him. I cannot appear in person, but I will write him a letter of support! I hope all this gets worked out; mammals argue over the silliest things."

"My summer job in Eureka Springs, Arkansas was a lot of fun!" said Stegosaurus. "Bringing my favorite opera, Scott Joplin's Treemonisha to life was a great experience! My supervisors were determined to present a purist production, so they didn't agree to my suggestion of replacing the dancing bears with dancing Stegosaurids, but I still enjoyed myself immensely. My job has given me enough resources to return to medical school, when the next semester opens on September 20th. "

"Right now I am updating my blog from my native state. I'm in Boulder, Colorado, to try my claw at being a firefighter. I stomped up here forthrightly after my summer job ended, for as soon as I heard about the terrible fires I wanted to do what I could to help the valiant and brave mammals of my homeland."

"I've been appointed to eliminate fuel for the blaze by eating away the brush."

Stegosaurus held a press conference this afternoon in Eureka Springs, Arkansas to express the profound sorrow he feels upon the extinction of his friend Daniel Schorr.

"It is with deepest solemnity I express my condolences to the Schorr family," said the bereaved plate lizard. "Mr. Schorr's coverage of my failed 2008 Colorado Senate campaign was, as with all of his work, fair and just, and his manner of reporting news as fact is in the modern age rare. The modern news climate seems so toxic to civility and truth! It is regrettable that Mr. Schorr's method of reporting is not more common as it should be, since we need objectivity more than ever."

"I can remember the day he began his career, which was not really that long ago, if you measure time as dinosaurs do.... but even to me it seems like he's always been there for us all. As if he could have reported the day that Eusthenopteron crawled out of the sea for the first time. How sad it will be never to hear his voice again! How deeply he will be missed by all his friends and all the world."

"I've stomped forthrightly into Arkansas for my summer job," announced Stegosaurus.

"I have a summer internship at Opera in the Ozarks in Eureka Springs as chief landscaper and set designer. I hope its not too much to ask as I've just begun, but I've got my heart set on suggesting they add a performance of my favorite opera Scott Joplin's Treemonisha, to their 2010 calendar.

In addition to my landscaping duties, I've humbly suggested one small change to the story. In place of the dancing bears scene I've suggested there be a dancing Stegosaurus! I've become well known for my dancing skills; I'm sure it will take off and be a big hit!"
