Hey, my name is Brock and I love dinosaurs! I created this blog so I could have someone to whom I could share my thoughts and feelings about the gentle giants of our past.

But don't feel like we can only talk about prehistoric creaturs. I also enjoy dungeons and dragons, Starwars, Star Trek, Battle Star Galactica, Twinkle Twinkle Little Star and anything that has to do with magical rings, distant planets populated with big blue people and Hermione Granger.

So feel free to indulge yourself in my interests and become my new friend. It's sometimes hard to find friends here in my home town but hopefully the internet will reach far and wide enough that I will find you and you will find me.

Before Denis Disappeared

Here is more of my old buddies. The boy in the green is my cousin Lane and the boy in the blue is Sam, he was my neighbor. Denis, the guy in the middle holding the impressive fossilized Maxilla was both my tutor and mentor. I will never forget the last time I saw him. He told me, "Brock, you have a lot of spirit. You remind me of myself at your age. One day you're going to going to be an amazing paleontologist like me. Except a real one." He could have been a paleontologist if he wanted too. He just thought attending "Universities" and going on "digs" were a waist of time. So instead he spent his days and nights finding the real secrets to the past from the only reliable source one can count on these days. The Internet. I learned more from Denis than any other unemployed middle aged man. I miss him soooo much! If only he didn't decode that secret message the government was putting out on the nets about dinosaur smuggling and Jurassic Park being real he would still be here with me. I also miss Sam, he disappeared about the same time too...
