Whoa! This got to 10 pages quick! Has anyone made Nazi comparisons yet?

edit: Nevermind...I see what happened.

lionsftw makes a good point. why trust, follow or worship anyone that wiped the dinosaurs out. what a dick that guy must be....

Offend me? I thought it showed you as a pathetic bum with too much time on his hands. Non Christians don't bother me.

this is entertaining coming from you. I spent an hour sharing what I thought some would find entertaining. you on the other hand can be addressed at pretty much any time of the day and be here to respond in less than an hour. if I have too much time on my hands in regards to posting on this board then you're father time himself.

Oh right, because I have more posts than you. Got it. You smart.

The panel is having a laugh at "booing God" on the Stephanopolous show this morning...except for the Democratic Platform Committee Co-Chair, Cory Booker, he seems pretty perturbed that everybody is laughing...

I don't mind that God wiped out the dinosaurs; I don't want those dinosaurs out there on the slopes or the waves on those days that I wanna board or ski in the morning, and then later surf in the afternoon...

...on the other hand, dinosaurs, being more similar to birds than reptiles, were probably delicious. I hope the cloning of dinos is possible in my time...think of the tailgating!

Still better not to have them clogging the slopes or the beaches just to have the occasional Brontosaurus Burger* or Stegasaurous Steak*...(or even the luscious Triceratops Tritip*); just MHO...



*I have little doubt that Red is not gonna have field day with this.

hmmm... would PETA complain about the mistreated dinosaurs being used for food, even if human beings were solely responsible for bringing them back? Seems like if you play god by creating life, you get to be cruel and capricious to that same life, like god is to us, without any moral quandary arising.

either way, I'm sure Byco will be posting on here that he doesn't eat that "genetically engineered dino crap" and acting all superior over those of us who do (or would do).

Well, this would lead to all kinds of moral/ethical questions; i.e., would you be legally able to kill and butcher and grill the dinosaurs right there on the beach or in the ski chalet when they had been simply out enjoying the California snow or the California sun (or the French Alpine snow or the French Riviera sun, as it were) or would some dinosaurs be protected to be able to enjoy skiing and surfing, while others would be designated as livestock?

And who would decide which dinosaurs would be which?

Maybe...Sarah Palin?

 

[tinselwolverine]

Actually...now that I'm thinking about it...dinosaurs coming back...or being brought back...and then living amongst/potentially being eaten by humans, and the quandries that that would bring about, would be a pretty good concept for a Showtime television series...I already have a pretty good working title...Cold Blood.

Maybe my friend, Jessie Clarke, could get the role of "the Dinosaur Queen;' and always be all naked and stuff in her scenes...(she looks pretty good naked...although I have only witnessed that on the big/small screen, or monitor...)

:hmm:

hmmm... I think it would be the same as livestock ownership now. if I breed dinosaurs, and keep them in my field, they belong to me, and I can do whatever I want with them.

as far as dinosaurs in the wild... guessing it would be illegal to hunt them (but you could kill in self defense), unless they became a nuisance, then they would lift restrictions like they do with wild boars. see one? blast away, Tex.

now, see I'm thinking about this from a rational, legal, middle-western perspective.

you with your crazy hollywood ideas...

maybe we combine a sort of realistic framework here, along with some action-adventure themes to create a show about dinosaur hunters, or something like that.

I think the best science-fiction tends to keep a foot in reality. if it's too wild, or absurd, it only appeals to kids, and really dumb adults.

Maybe combine a Tom Clancy "Clear and Present Danger" theme, with Jurassic Park...

start with neo-communists, narco-terrorists, islamic extremists, or... China... gains control over dinosaurs, and threatens to unleash a huge mess of them on certain parts of the world. imagine a hundred tyrannosaurus rex pups unleashed in national forests in the US. a few dozen of them survive into adulthood and wreak havoc on the economy the next year, and the US has to spend billions to hunt them down and eradicate them.

Red_and_Guilty plays the scientist guy who invents a formula to create "dino-bait" to attract the raptors/t-rexs to a wide open area where the marines armed with bazookas and high-powered rifles can take them out.

wait, the onion was kinda on to something here: link.

What I'm thinking is...Red and byco get together, and re-create the dinosaur, intended to be livestock -

but -

they screw up; and they bring the dinosaurs back with cognitive abilities; they have reason, they can speak languages and communicate with each other, and with humans...and are roughly our size.

They escape, and populate...

And as they roam amongst us, humans are faced with a moral dilemma -

Do they have souls?

Would killing them be murder?

Do they pose a danger to humankind?

And the dinosaurs are faced with the same dilemmas, to a degree, regarding humans.

Oh, yeah, and one motif that HAS to be included -

The dinosaurs, they love to ski (or board, the younger ones anyway) and they love to surf.

Deal breaker, if that's not included.

Artistic license.

Ah, piss and shit, the Onion, my forever nemesis.

I hate them more than Cliff Barnes hates the Ewings.

...

how would those two get together?

I know they're both in NC now. Guessing red is the eccentric neighbor, and Byco is the crotchety old guy who can't stand him, but keeps getting drawn into his hair-brained schemes when he goes next door to "see what all that racket is"

That works; but remember, we have artistic license, here, they can be neighbors, but they don't HAVE to be in North Carolina...they can be anywhere...

I mean, it CAN be North Carolina...maybe Myrtle Beach, or Hilton Head, if it is...
