It wasn't an "ice age" or "meteor impacted" that dusted the dinosaurs!

".....a gamma ray beam striking the Earth would break up molecules in the stratosphere, causing the formation of nitrous oxide..."

Is that website where you get your political information? That explains a lot. They have great merchandise though. No household is complete without the Donald Rumsfeld coffee mug,George Bush action doll,or a deck of Hillary playing cards.

What does this have to do with laughing? I enjoy laughing and want to laugh now. Your thread promised I would laugh!

In all honesty though, I doubt dinosaurs had the ability to laugh, nitrous oxide or not.

You don't think they had a sense of humor?

Well I don't recall any paleontologists uncovering fossilized ventriloquist dinosaur dummies or dino-propeller beanies. If the dinosaurs did not have those things, there is no way they could have had a sense of humor. But they did uncover a fossilized videotape of Dino-jackass where the dinos eat each other's vomit and staple their eyelids shut, so who knows? Some would qualify that as humor.
