Back in December, I shared a quiz with you all entitled: How Long Would You Survive Chained to a Bunk Bed with a Velociraptor? In case you missed that post, you can read it here.
The quiz generated a bit of controversy (again, for full details, follow the link to the original post).
This post is intended as a follow-up to the velociraptor one. Nicole sent me this article, entitled Seven Dinosaurs You Could Take in a Fight, from Cracked.com. Since it’s generally acknowledged that raptors and T-rexs and such are terrifying and not the type of dinosaur an average human would feel good about meeting in a dark alley, the writer of the article has kindly complied a list of dinosaurs we… would… feel good about meeting in said alley.
Case closed?

I have been tagged a bunch of times for this Facebook thing now, so I figured I should just suck it up…
Here are the rules: you write a note with 25 random things, facts, ,habits, etc. about yourself. Then choose your closest friends to be tagged, including the person who tagged you.
25 Things About ME!
- I am incredibly afraid of birds. Ironically, my only tattoo is OF a bird.
- I am a perfectionist, and as such, my own harshest critic.
- I have written one complete novel (chick lit) and one half-complete novel (science fiction).
- I own a 5-inch Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope and spend a lot of time cursing the weather for interfering with my telescope usage.
- I am learning to knit.
- There are *some* people who say I am a control freak. They are probably right.
- I often question the decisions I have made about my career.
- I won’t buy or wear underwear unless it is from Victoria’s Secret.
- I feel really bad for Brain. That darn Pinky needs to stop preventing him from taking over the world.
- I think poo is hilarious.
- I make lists for everything.
- I’m a compulsive book-buyer. I have 15 books on my nightstand that I have not read yet, but I will continue to buy more.
- My family and a select handful of friends mean more to me that anything.
- I can watch season 3 of Alias over and over again and not get bored.
- I make awesome cupcakes.
- It takes me a very long time to trust people.
- BonJovi rules.
- Many people are either “scared” of me or think I am a bitch until they get to know me.
- I am addicted to Cafe Mistos at Starbucks.
- It pisses me off when I hear a person argue that life can’t possibly exist elsewhere in the universe.
- I do not understand a damn thing about art.
- I think it’s perfectly within reason to pay $100 or more for dinner if the food is high-quality.
- I would travel into space if given the opportunity.
- The only TV I watch regularly is the Food Network and the show The Universe on The History Channel.
- One of the best moments in my life was stepping off the plane and onto the ground in Tahiti.
